DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Symphony CMS, which
can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks
and by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
1) Input passed to the "email" POST parameter in
symphony/login/retrieve-password, "username" POST parameter in
symphony/login/, and the "settings[email_sendmail][from_name]" POST
parameter to symphony/system/preferences is not properly sanitised
before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute
arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context
of an affected site.
2) Input passed via the URL to symphony/bluePRINTs/pages/edit and the
"fields[username]" parameter to symphony/system/authors/edit is not
properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires the "Author"
permissions.
The vulnerabilities is confirmed in version 2.3. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
No official solution is currently available.
