Version(s): 1.0

Description: [P]hoenix reported a vulnerability in phpMyDesktop|Arcade. A remote user can conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
The 'index.php' script 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 phpMyDesktop|Arcade 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.
A demonstration exploit URL is provided:
http://[target]/phpMyDesktop/minigame/index.php?todo=showsubsite&subsite=<script>alert(document.
cookie)</script>
Other parameters are also affected.
|
Impact: A remote user can access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site running the
phpMyDesktop|Arcade 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.

Solution: No solution was available at the time of this entry.
