Technical Details & Description:
================================
Multiple non-persistent cross site web vulnerabilities has been discovered in the official PHP Melody v3.0 video cms web-application.
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own malicious script codes with non-persistent attack vector to compromise browser
to web-application requests by the client-side.

The cross site scripting vulnerabilities are located in the `moved`, `username` and `keyword` parameters of the `categories.php`, `import.php`
or `import-user.php` files. The injection point is located in the get method request and the execution occurs with non-persistent attack vector
in the status message or exception of the admin panel ui.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, non-persistent phishing attacks, non-persistent external redirects
to malicious source and non-persistent manipulation of affected application modules.

Request Method(s):
[+] GET

Vulnerable File(s):
[+] categories.php
[+] import-user.php
[+] import.php

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
[+] move
[+] username
[+] keyword

Affected Module(s):
[+] Status Message & Exception


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The client-side cross site scripting web vulnerabilities can be exploited by remote attackers without account and with low user interaction.
For security demonstration or to reproduce the cross site web vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerabilities can be resolved by the following steps ...
1. Encode, escape or filter the vulnerable move, keyword and username parameters in the get method requests
2. Restrict all the transmitted parameters by disallowing the usage of special chars
3. Sanitize the status message and error message output to prevent the execution points
4. Alternativ setup security headers and a web firewall or filter to prevent further exploitation
