TITLE:
PhpGedView Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA10602

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://www.secunia.com/advisories/10602/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data, Exposure of system
information

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
PhpGedView 2.x

DESCRIPTION:
JeiAr has reported multiple vulnerabilities in PhpGedView, allowing
malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection
attacks.

1) The parameters "pids", "parent_id", and "level" aren't properly
verified in "timeline.php" and "placelist.php" before they are used
in SQL queries in "functions_mysql.php". This can be exploited to
manipulate SQL queries.

2) It may be possible to cause various scripts to return error
messages with the installation path by supplying invalid arguments to
different parameters.

3) Multiple scripts don't verify input properly before returning it,
which may allow malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Examples:
/descendancy.php?pid=<malicious_code>
/index.php?rootid="><malicious_code>
/individual.php?pid="><malicious_code>
/login.php?url=/index.php?GEDCOM="><malicious_code>
/relationship.php?path_to_find="><malicious_code>
/relationship.php?path_to_find=0&pid1="><malicious_code>
/relationship.php?path_to_find=0&pid1=&pid2="><malicious_code>
/source.php?sid=<malicious_code>
/imageview.php?filename=<malicious_code>
/calendar.php?action=today&day=1&month=jan&year="><malicious_code>
/calendar.php?action=today&day=1&month=<malicious_code>
/calendar.php?action=today&day=<malicious_code>
/gedrecord.php?pid=<malicious_code>
/login.php?action=login&username="><malicious_code>
/login.php?&changelanguage=yes&NEWLANGUAGE=<malicious_code>
/gdbi_interface.php?action=delete&pid=<malicious_code>

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 2.65 beta5 and
prior.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 2.65.
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=55456

Error reporting should either be disabled on production systems or
error messages should be logged to files without being returned to
the client.
