TITLE:
TikiWiki Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA11344

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/11344/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass, Manipulation of data, Exposure of sensitive
information, System access

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
        
TikiWiki 1.x

DESCRIPTION:
JeiAr has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in TikiWiki, allowing
malicious people to conduct Cross Site Scripting, SQL injection,
script insertion attacks and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Path information can be disclosed by supplying invalid input or
requesting certain scripts directly.

2) Input to multiple scripts isn't properly verified before it is
returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML
or script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected
site by tricking the user into visiting a malicious website or follow
a specially crafted link.

3) Input passed to multiple scripts isn't properly sanitised before
it is used in SQL queries. This allows manipulation of SQL queries by
injecting arbitrary SQL code.

4) Certain parameters in various functionality allow URLs and scripts
to be inserted. These can contain references to administrative
functions, which will be executed when an administrative user views a
profile or page with malicious links.

5) An input validation error can be exploited to access directories
outside the web root via the "../" directory traversal character
sequence.

6) It is possible to upload arbitrary files to "/img/wiki_up/"
folder. This can be exploited to place arbitrary code on the system.

This has been reported to affect version 1.8 and prior.

SOLUTION:
This has been fixed in TikiWiki 1.8.2 (Polaris).
