October 21, 2008

Risk Level:
MEDIUM - Input passed via the URL to the affected location is not properly sanitized before being returned to the user. While accessing the affected location requires authentication, an administrator can be tricked into clicking a maliciously-created link or accessing a maliciously-created iframe. The result could be the execution of arbitrary script code in the context of the affected site, leading to session hijacking.

Program Summary:
Jetbox is role-based PHP content management system used by small and medium-sized organizations to create and manage web content.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jetboxone/

Affected Location and Proof of Concept Code:

  • /admin/postlister/index.php?liste=default%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert(1)%3C/script%3E

Vendor Solution:
The developer has reported that the application is no longer supported. We recommend fixing the code in source, implementing a web application firewall (WAF) or discontinuing use of the Jetbox CMS.
