Discussion

LabWiki Multiple Cross Site Scripting And Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerabilities

LabWiki is prone to multiple cross-site scripting and arbitrary file upload vulnerabilities because the software fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input

An attacker may leverage these issues to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site and to upload arbitrary files and execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.

LabWiki 1.1 and prior are vulnerable.
