TITLE:
Arcadwy Arcade Script SQL Injection and Script Insertion
SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34506
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34506/
DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Arcadwy Arcade Script,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection
and script insertion attacks.
1) Input passed via the "user" cookie is not properly sanitised
before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate
SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability enables bypassing the
authentication mechanism.
2) Input passed to the "user_name" parameter in register.php (when
"action" is set to "1") 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 the context of an
affected site when the malicious user name is displayed.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
