Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Academic Web Tools (AWT YEKTA) versions 1.4.3.1, 1.4.2.8 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the query string to "login.php" and the glb sid parameter to "hta/htmlarea.js.php". Additionally, remote authenticated users can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via an unspecified field in "room.php".

Recommendations For versions 1.4.3.1, 1.4.2.8 and earlier, consider disabling access to "login.php" and "hta/htmlarea.js.php" until a patch is available. Restrict access to the glb sid parameter in "hta/htmlarea.js.php" to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using unspecified fields in "room.php" that may allow arbitrary web script or HTML injection until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
