HTTP: SyndeoCMS Addons Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known cross-site scripting vulnerability in SyndeoCMS content manager. A successful attack can result in the compromise of Web browser cookies associated with the site, and modification of user information.

Extended Description

SyndeoCMS is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities and an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database. SyndeoCMS 2.8.02 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
