Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
PHP-Nuke versions 5.3.1 and earlier
Description
A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML. This can be achieved via several parameters, including
uname in "user.php", ttitle, letter, and file in "modules.php", subject, story, and storyext in "submit.php", upload in "admin.php", and fname in "friend.php".Recommendations
For PHP-Nuke versions 5.3.1 and earlier, consider disabling the affected parameters, such as
uname, ttitle, letter, file, subject, story, storyext, upload, and fname, in their respective files until a patch is available. Restrict access to the vulnerable modules and files, such as "user.php", "modules.php", "submit.php", "admin.php", and "friend.php", to minimize the risk of exploitation.Exploit
