TITLE:
XAMPP "lang.php" Script Insertion and Information Disclosure

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:

http://secunia.com/advisories/15735/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Exposure of sensitive information

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
XAMPP 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/5256/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in XAMPP, which can be exploited by
malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information and
conduct script insertion attacks.

Input passed to the query string in "lang.php" isn't properly
sanitised before being stored in the "lang.tmp" file. This can be
exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be
executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site
when the malicious user data is viewed.

This can further be exploited to disclose the contents of arbitrary
local PHP scripts via directory traversal attacks in an "include()"
statement.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.4.13. Prior versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.4.14.
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=61776
