As most part of PHP CMS, XOOPS allows users to send and receive Private
Messages (PMs), that are saved on the DataBase.
We found how all messages are readable.
And sure, we give you a solution.

Product : XOOPS
Version : RC3 (tested)
File : /pmlite.php

Bug :
        if ($reply == 1) {
                $pm = new XoopsPM($msg_id);
                $pm_uname = XoopsUser::getUnameFromId($pm->getVar
("from_userid"));
                 $replytext = "[quote]\n";
                $replytext .= sprintf(_PM_USERWROTE,$pm_uname);
                $replytext .= "\n".$pm->getVar("msg_text", "E")."\n
[/quote]";

Solution :
        A patched file is available on www.phpsecure.org :
                http://www.phpsecure.org/index.php?zone=pPatchA&sAlpha=x
        

patch :
        ligne 76 : if($pm->getVar("to_userid") != $xoopsUser->getVar
("uid"))
        ligne 77 : die("Désolé, c'est patché :)<br><br><a
href=\"http://www.phpsecure.org\">phpSecure();</a>");
        

Thanxxx :
        Magistrat for his website (www.blocus-zone.com) that allows me to
test XOOPS every day :p
        PhpSecure Team (www.phpsecure.org, don't forget ;))
