Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Crafy Syntax Live Help 2.7.3 and below
| QUOTE |
The problem:
Users are able to insert pieces of html both in their name when they request livehelp and in chat sessions. For example. If I where to input the following javascript inside a "<"script">" tag and use it as my name. window.location("http://www.cgisecurity.com/articles/xss-faq.shtml");
This would cause all online operators to goto that URL. This on its own may not seem to be that big of a deal to you. The following example is a little more malicious. If the following snippet of code is put between script tags and then pasted into an chat session with an operator it will cause CSLH to remove the first operator. window.location("http://livehelp.someisp.com/livehelp/operators.php?remove=1")
Solution:
Upgrade to CSLH 2.7.4.
HNK Technology Solutions would like to thank the developer(s) of CSLH for their quick response and fix for the problem.
