QID 730056: PHPRank Banner Script Code Injection Vulnerability

phpRank is a freely available Web site link sharing script. It is available for Unix, Linux, and Microsoft operating systems.

A problem with phpRank could lead to the execution of arbitrary script code. phpRank does not properly filter some forms of input. When a user submits a site to the banner list, it is possible for the user to insert arbitrary HTML or script code in the banner URL. This could allow a remote user to execute arbitrary code in the browser of clients visiting the site.

QID Detection Logic:
This QID sends POST request to add.php?page=add to check the vulnerable version.

This problem could lead to an attacker gaining access to sensitive information, such as authentication cookies, and could potentially be used to perform other attacks. Any code executed through this vulnerability would be in the security context of the vulnerable site.

CVSS V2 rated as Medium - 4.3 severity.

Solution

Customers are advised to upgrade the latest version of PHPRank.
