affected versions:AWStats 6.5 (build 1.857) and previous
orginal advisory:http://pridels.blogspot.com/2006/04/awstats-65-vuln.html
###############################################
Vuln. Description:
AWStats contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack.
This flaw exists because input passed to "config" paremeter in "awstats.pl"
isn't properly sanitised before being returned to the user.
This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute
arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the
browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
Also doing XSS vuln. check attacker will get full path disclosure.
###############################################
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
