JM LLC Basic Forum Multiple Vulnerabilities


Description   Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in JM LLC Basic Forum, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery, script insertion, and SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed via the "post" and "title" POST parameters to new.php is not 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 via the "reply" POST parameter to post.php is not properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
3) Input passed via multiple parameters to two scripts is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site if malicious data is viewed.
List of affected scripts and parameters:
<a href="http://[host]/user.php?bio&firstname
" target="_blank">http://[host]/user.php?bio&firstname
</a>
<a href="http://[host]/new.php?post&title
" target="_blank">http://[host]/new.php?post&title
</a>
4) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without performing proper validity checks to verify the requests. This can be exploited to e.g. change a user's password when a logged-in user visits a specially crafted web page.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 5/15/13. Other versions may also be affected.
