TITLE:
WorkSimple Multiple Security Issues
SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA38725
VERIFY ADVISORY:
https://secunia.com/advisories/38725/
DESCRIPTION:
Multiple security issues have been discovered in WorkSimple, which
can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive
information and bypass certain security restrictions.
1) The security issue is caused due to missing access restrictions to
the data/secret.php script. This can be exploited to disclose
sensitive information (e.g. the administrative username and MD5 hash
of the password).
2) The security issue is caused due to missing access restrictions to
the modules/uploader.php script. This can be exploited to upload
certain files to the "uploads" folder inside the webroot without
prior authentication.
The security issues are confirmed in version 1.3.2. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Restrict access to the "data/secret.php" and "modules/uploader.php"
script (e.g. via .htaccess).
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
