TITLE:
Helm Web Hosting Control Panel Two Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA13079

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/13079/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
Helm Web Hosting Control Panel 3.x
http://secunia.com/product/4205/

DESCRIPTION:
Behrang Fouladi has reported two vulnerabilities in Helm Web Hosting
Control Panel, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
SQL injection and script insertion attacks.

1) Helm fails to verify input passed to the "messageToUserAccNum"
parameter in the "compose message" form properly before it is used in
a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by
injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation requires reseller level access.

2) Input passed to the "Subject" field in the "compose message" form
is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to
inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in e.g.
an administrator's browser session in context of an affected site
when the malicious user data is viewed.

Successful exploitation requires reseller level access.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 3.1.19. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 3.1.20.
