high Nessus Plugin ID 22232

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is prone to several issues.

Description

The remote host is running Owl Intranet Engine, a web-based document management system written in PHP.

The version of Owl Intranet Engine on the remote host fails to sanitize input to the session id cookie before using it in a database query. Provided PHP's 'magic_quotes_gpc' setting is disabled, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this issue to uncover sensitive information such as password hashes, modify data, launch attacks against the underlying database, etc.

In addition, the application reportedly suffers from at least one cross-site scripting issue.

Solution

Apply the patch referenced in the vendor advisory above.
