Description: X1NG reported a vulnerability in lucidCMS. A remote user can conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
The software does not properly filter HTML code from user-supplied input before displaying the input. A remote user can create a
specially crafted URL that, when loaded by a target user, will cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the target user's
browser. The code will originate from the site running the lucidCMS software and will run in the security context of that site.
As a result, the code will be able to access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with
the site, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting as the
target user.
Some demonstration exploit URLs are provided:
http://[target]/[cms]/index.php?<script>alert(document.cookie);</script>
http://[target]/[cms]/?<script>
alert(document.cookie);</script>
|
Impact: A remote user can access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site running the
lucidCMS software, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting
as the target user.
