Detail

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in phpgroupware, a web based groupware system written in PHP. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CAN-2005-2498

Stefan Esser discovered another vulnerability in the XML-RPC libraries that allows injection of arbitrary PHP code into eval() statements. The XMLRPC component has been disabled.

CAN-2005-2600

Alexander Heidenreich discovered a cross-site scriptiong problem in the tree view of FUD Forum Bulletin Board Software, which is also present in phpgroupware.

CAN-2005-2761

A global cross-site scripting fix has also been included that protects against potential malicious scripts embedded in CSS and xmlns in various parts of the application and modules.

This update also contains a postinst bugfix that has been approved for the next update to the stable release.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems don't apply.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.9.16.005-3.sarge2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 0.9.16.008.

We recommend that you upgrade your phpgroupware packages.

Id Description
18979 phpGroupWare Main Screen Message Body XSS

18889 XML-RPC for PHP (PHPXMLRPC) Nested XML Tags Arbitrary PHP Code Execution

XML-RPC for PHP (PHPXMLRPC) contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary PHP code. The problem is that the library does not properly sanitizing certain XML tags that are nested in a parsed PHP document before being used in an 'eval()' call, which may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary PHP code resulting in a loss of integrity.
18699 FUDforum mid Variable Tree View Arbitrary Restricted Message Access

FUDforum contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is triggered when an attacker modifies the mid HTTP variable, which will disclose arbitrary restricted forum messages resulting in a loss of confidentiality.
