DESCRIPTION:
Aliaksandr Hartsuyeu has discovered two vulnerabilities in Unknown
Domain Shoutbox, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct script insertion and SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed to the "Handle" and "Message" fields isn't properly
sanitised before being saved. This can be exploited to execute
arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context
of an affected site with a malicious message is viewed.
2) Input passed to various parameters isn't properly sanitised before
being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL
queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is
disabled.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.0. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
