txtForum: Multiple XSS Vulnerabilities
===========================================================
Technical University of Vienna Security Advisory
TUVSA-0603-003, March 9, 2006
===========================================================
Affected applications
----------------------
txtForum (http://sourceforge.net/projects/txtforum1)
Versions 1.0.4-dev and prior.
Description
------------
There are multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities which can be verified by using the following exploits (the user needs to be logged in). They are roughly sorted by entry points (i.e., the names of the files that have to be navigated). The vulnerabilities were discovered under the assumption that register_globals is on, and that magic_quotes_gpc is off.
index.php
-----------
- skins/txtforum/under_topic.tpl, line 11
(included by index.php on line 99)
$prev: not initialized if the file "data/headers.txt" does not exist;
exploit in this case: analogous to line 123 (see below)
- 122:
$next: not initialized if the file "data/headers.txt" does not exist;
exploit in this case: analogous to line 123 (see below)
- 123:
$rand5: is never initialized
