Title: phpWebSite: Multiple vulnerabilities (GLSA 200507-07)
Severity: high
Exploitable: remote
Date: July 10, 2005
Bug(s): #97461
ID: 200507-07
Synopsis
phpWebSite is vulnerable to the remote execution of arbitrary PHP script code and to other, yet undisclosed, vulnerabilities.
Background
phpWebSite is a content management system written in PHP.
Affected Packages
Package: www-apps/phpwebsite
Vulnerable: < 0.10.1-r1
Unaffected: >= 0.10.1-r1
Architectures: All supported architectures
Description
phpWebSite fails to sanitize input sent to the XML-RPC server using the "POST" method. Other unspecified vulnerabilities have been discovered by Diabolic Crab of Hackers Center.
Impact
A remote attacker could exploit the XML-RPC vulnerability to execute arbitrary PHP script code by sending specially crafted XML data to phpWebSite. The undisclosed vulnerabilities do have an unknown impact.
Workaround
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
All phpWebSite users should upgrade to the latest available version: Code: | # emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-app/phpwebsite-0.10.1-r1" |
