TITLE:
Magic Forum Personal Cross-Site Scripting and SQL Injection

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA17935

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/17935/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
Magic Forum Personal 2.x
http://secunia.com/product/6389/

DESCRIPTION:
r0t has reported some vulnerabilities in Magic Forum Personal, which
can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
and SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed to the "ForumID", "Thread", and "ThreadID" parameters
in "view_forum.cfm" isn't properly sanitised before being used in a
SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by
injecting arbitrary SQL code.

2) Input passed to the "Words" parameter in "search_forums.cfm" isn't
properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be
exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's
browser session in context of an affected site.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 2.5 and prior.
Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
