Discussion

DokuWiki Spell_UTF8Test Function HTML Injection Vulnerability

DokuWiki is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.

Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would execute in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.

DokuWiki 2007-06-26 and prior versions are vulnerable.
