Gallery 3.0.x < 3.0.8 Multiple XSS

high Nessus Plugin ID 66933

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its version number, the Gallery install hosted on the remote web server contains cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in the 'uploadify.swf' and 'flowplay.swf' files, where URL fragments and parameters are not properly sanitized when called via direct requests. An attacker may be able to leverage these issues to inject arbitrary HTML and script code into a user's browser to be executed within the security context of the affected site.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Gallery 3.0.8 or later.
