Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-8827)

CWE-ID: CWE-287 - Improper Authentication

CVSSv4: 8.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to #BASIC_IMPACT#.

forgotpassword.php in GeniXCMS 1.0.2 lacks a rate limit, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (login inability) or possibly conduct Arbitrary User Password Reset attacks via a series of requests.


2) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-8780)

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVSSv4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to read and manipulate data.

GeniXCMS 1.0.2 has XSS triggered by a comment that is mishandled during a publish operation by an administrator, as demonstrated by a malformed P element.


3) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-8762)

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVSSv4: 5.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to read and manipulate data.

GeniXCMS 1.0.2 has XSS triggered by an authenticated user who submits a page, as demonstrated by a crafted oncut attribute in a B element.


4) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-8376)

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVSSv4: 5.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated user to read and manipulate data.

GeniXCMS 1.0.2 has XSS triggered by an authenticated comment that is mishandled during a mouse operation by an administrator.


5) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-8377)

CWE-ID: CWE-89 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')

CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data passed via the menuid parameter. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.


6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-8388)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to manipulate data.

GeniXCMS 1.0.2 allows remote attackers to bypass the alertDanger MSG_USER_EMAIL_EXIST protection mechanism via a register.php?act=edit&id=1 request.
