TITLE: TorrentFlux file Script Insertion CRITICAL: Moderate IMPACT: Cross Site Scripting WHERE:
From remote
SOFTWARE: TorrentFlux 2.x DESCRIPTION: I have discovered a vulnerability in TorrentFlux, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks. Input passed to the file variable is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in an administrators browser session in context of an affected site when the Activity Log is viewed. An example is attempting to login with an incorrect username or password. Where the username field of /login.php contains the arbitrary code. The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 2.1. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised. /admin.php Line 338: $output .= htmlentities($file, ENT_QUOTES); ORIGINAL ADVISORY: http://www.stevenroddis.com.au/2006/10/17/torrentflux-file-script-insertion/
