Warforge.NEWS Multiple SQL Injection and Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities


Description   Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Warforge.NEWS, which could be exploited by remote attackers to perform SQL injection and cross site scripting.
The first issue is due to input validation errors in various scripts (e.g. "myaccounts.php") that fail to properly validate certain parameters (e.g. "first_name" or "last_name"), which could be exploited by attackers to cause malicious scripting code to be executed by the user's browser.
The second flaw is due to input validation errors in the "authcheck.php" script that does not validate the "authusername" and "authpassword" cookie parameters, which could be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks and gain unauthorized access to a vulnerable application.
