Product Description:
phpXplorer is a free open source file management system / explorer
written in PHP. It enables you to work on a remote file system through
a web browser. By default it has got dialogs for editing HTML, PHP,
image, Apache, compressed and email files. Its modular design makes it
easy to build your own filetypes, property sheets, views and themes.
phpXplorers permission manager enables you to restrict the access to
the shared file system for multiple users in a detailed way.
Vuln. Description:
phpXplorer contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting
attack. This flaw exists because input passed to adress bar field
isn't properly sanitised before being returned to the user.
This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would
execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust
relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of
integrity.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
