Subject: WebCT: XSS vulnerability

Vendor : WEBCT
URL : http://webct.com/
Version : WebCT Campus Edition Version 4.1
Risk : Cross site scripting

Description: WebCT is the world's leading provider of e-learning systems for 
educational

institutions.

	WebCT's vision is to deliver innovative e-learning solutions to help 
institutions

improve educational outcomes for students around the world.

WebCT is a trusted industry leader in providing e-learning systems for 
educational

institutions. Thousands of institutions in more than 70 countries worldwide

Cross site scripting: The filtering script for the discussion board doesnt 
filter iframe,

img, or object. All of which can take advantage of xss and because of the 
way my schoo was

setup this lead to full access to their email, and account information.

Solution: The easiest way would be to just disallow iframe,img,and object 
tags or html tags

at all.

Credits: Credits goto http://hackthissite.org. It provided a nice, open, 
legal environment

for me to try new things and learn from those who know. A place where you 
are not

reprimanded even if u deface a page or two. A place where I started with no 
knowledge and

in less than a year found new vulnerabilities of my own. Thank you 
http://hackthissite.org.

Lab rats: The Nick's, Shrinidhi, Charbel and most importantly to Halley, you 
give me the

strength and courage to do all that I do, without you I am nothing. Thank 
you sweetheart.

Exploit: This is exploited using iframe,img, or object tags to redirect you 
to a maliscious

site.
