TITLE:
Cholod Mysql based message board Script Insertion and SQL Injection

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA19439

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/19439/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Cholod Mysql based message board
http://secunia.com/product/9022/

DESCRIPTION:
kspecial has discovered some vulnerabilities in Cholod Mysql based
message board, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
script insertion and SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed to the "Name", "Subject", and "Message" parameters in
"mb.cgi" when posting a message isn't properly sanitised before being
used. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code,
which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an
affected site when the malicious user data is viewed.

2) Input passed to the "topicnumber" and "threadnumber" parameters in
"mb.cgi" isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query.
This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.

Some other parameters may also be affected.

The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in the latest available
version. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
