The remote host is running Silent-Storm, a web-based forum management software written in PHP.

There are multiple input validation flaws in the remote version of this software :

  • There is a cross-site scripting vulnerability involving the ‘module’ parameter of the ‘index.php’ script.

  • The application fails to sanitize the ‘mail’ parameter to the ‘profile.php’ script, which could be abused to inject arbitrary data into the ‘users.dat’ database file and, for example, gain administrative access to the application.
