TITLE: MWNewsletter Multiple Vulnerabilities SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA19568 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/19568/ CRITICAL: Moderately critical IMPACT: Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data WHERE: >From remote SOFTWARE: MWNewsletter 1.x http://secunia.com/product/9228/ DESCRIPTION: Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in MWNewsletter, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks and SQL injection attacks. 1) Input passed to the "user_name" parameter in subscribe.php is not properly sanitised before being saved. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in an administrator's browser session in context of an affected site when malicious data is viewed. 2) Input passed to the "user_name" parameter in unsubscribe.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 to the "user_email" parameter in unsubscribe.php and to the "user_name" and "user_email" parameters in subscribe.php 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 requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled. The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 1.0.0b. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
