Hello Bugtraq!
I want to warn you about Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in Joomulus
(mod_joomulus) plugin for Joomla. Which I found at 23.12.2009.
It is similar to XSS vulnerability in WP-Cumulus
(http://websecurity.com.ua/3665/), because it's using tagcloud.swf made by
author of WP-Cumulus. About millions of flash files tagcloud.swf which are
vulnerable to XSS attacks I mentioned in my article XSS vulnerabilities in 8
millions flash files (http://websecurity.com.ua/3789/).
XSS:
http://site/modules/mod_joomulus/tagcloud.
swf?mode=tags&tagcloud=%3Ctags%3E%3Ca+href='javascript:
alert(document.cookie)'+style='font-size:
+40pt'%3EClick%20me%3C/a%3E%3C/tags%3E
Code will execute after click. It's strictly social XSS.
Also it's possible to conduct (like in WP-Cumulus) HTML Injection attack,
including in those flash files which have protection (in flash files or via
WAF) against javascript and vbscript URI in parameter tagcloud.
HTML Injection:
http://site/wp-content/plugins/wp-cumulus/tagcloud.
swf?mode=tags&tagcloud=%3Ctags%3E%3Ca+href='http://websecurit
y.com.ua'+style='font-size:
+40pt'%3EClick%20me%3C/a%3E%3C/tags%3E
Vulnerable are Joomulus 2.0 and previous versions.
I mentioned about this vulnerability at my site
(http://websecurity.com.ua/3801/).
