DESCRIPTION:
tarkus has discovered some vulnerabilities in b2evolution, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.
Input passed to the "app_name" parameter in _404_not_found.page.php,
_410_stats_gone.page.php and _referer_spam.page.php, "baseurl" in
_404_not_found.page.php and "ReqURI" in _referer_spam.page.php is not
properly sanitised before it is returned to the user. This can be
exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's
browser session in context of an affected site. All scripts are
located in the inc/VIEW/errors directory.
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.8.5. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Fixed in the CVS repository.
