Date Published: 2005-06-16
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13974
Summary:
e107 Website System is prone to multiple input validation and information disclosure vulnerabilities.

The application has an information disclosure vulnerability regarding valid usernames.

The application is also vulnerable to several cross-site scripting and HTML injection vulnerabilities. These issues are due to a failure in the application to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.

Some of the cross-site scripting issues are the same as described in BID 10436, which were believed to be addressed in previous versions of the application. Further information has reported that the application is still affected.

41. Ultimate PHP Board Weak Password Encryption Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 13975
Remote: Yes
Date Published: 2005-06-16
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13975
Summary:
Ultimate PHP Board is prone to a weak password encryption vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure of the application to protect passwords with a sufficiently effective encryption scheme.

This issue may allow a malicious user to gain access to user and administrator passwords for the affected application.

42. Cool Cafe Chat LOGIN.ASP SQL Injection Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 13976
Remote: Yes
Date Published: 2005-06-16
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13976
Summary:
Cool Cafe Chat is prone to an SQL injection vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure in the application to properly sanitize user-supplied input to the 'login.asp' script before using it in an SQL query.

Successful exploitation could result in a compromise of the application, disclosure or modification of data, or may permit an attacker to exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.

Cool Cafe Chat 1.2.1 is reportedly vulnerable.

43. OpenBSD Kernel IP_CTLoutput Local Denial Of Service Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 13977
Remote: No
Date Published: 2005-06-16
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13977
Summary:
A local denial of service vulnerability affects OpenBSD.

The vendor reports that a local user may invoke 'getsockopt()' on an existing socket to trigger this vulnerability.

A local attacker may exploit this issue to trigger a kernel panic and deny service for legitimate users.

44. SpamAssassin Malformed Email Header Remote Denial Of Service Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 13978
Remote: Yes
Date Published: 2005-06-17
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13978
Summary:
SpamAssassin is prone to a remote denial of service vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure of the application to properly handle overly long email headers.

Further details regarding this vulnerability are currently not available. This BID will be updated as more information is disclosed.

An attacker may cause SpamAssassin to take inordinate amounts of time to check a specially crafted email message. By sending many malicious messages, it may be possible for attackers to cause extremely large delays in email delivery, denying service to legitimate users.

45. osCommerce Multiple HTTP Response Splitting Vulnerabilities
BugTraq ID: 13979
Remote: Yes
Date Published: 2005-06-17
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13979
Summary:

A remote attacker may exploit any of these vulnerabilities to influence or misrepresent how Web content is served, cached or interpreted. This could aid in various attacks that attempt to entice client users into a false sense of trust.

46. SuSE Linux GPG2 S/MIME Signing Unspecified Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 13980
Remote: Yes
Date Published: 2005-06-17
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13980
Summary:

BugTraq ID: 13982
Remote: Yes
Date Published: 2005-06-17
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13982
Summary:
XAMMP is prone to an HTML injection vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure in the application to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.

Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would be executed in the context of the affected Web site, potentially allowing for theft of cookie-based authentication credentials. An attacker could also exploit this issue to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.
