TITLE:
OpenEdit Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA18168

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/18168/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
OpenEdit 4.x
http://secunia.com/product/6589/

DESCRIPTION:
r0t has reported two vulnerabilities in OpenEdit, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed to the "oe-action" and "page" parameters in
"results.html" 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 4.0 and prior.
Other versions may also be affected.

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

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
