Detail
| Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in MHonArc: MHonArc 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via start tags that are placed within other start tags, as demonstrated by a <bo<bo<bo<bo<body>dy>dy>dy>dy> sequence, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-4524 (CVE-2010-1677). Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in lib/mhtxthtml.pl in MHonArc 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a malformed start tag and end tag for a SCRIPT element, as demonstrated by <scr<body>ipt> and </scr<body>ipt> sequences (CVE-2010-4524). Packages for 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance Program. Please visit this link to learn more: http://store.mandriva.com/product_info.php?cPath=149&products_id=490 The updated packages have been upgraded to the latest version (2.6.18) which is not vulnerable to these issues. |

| Id | Description |
|---|---|
| 70287 | MHonArc Start Tag Nesting Remote DoS MHonArc contains a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is triggered when a remote attacker nests start tags within other start tags, causing a denial of service via CPU consumption. |
| 70085 | MHonArc lib/mhtxthtml.pl HTML Email Conversion XSS MHonArc contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application contains the 'lib/mhtxthtml.pl' script which does not properly convert HTML e-mails with malformed HTML tags of the form '<scr<body>ipt>'. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server. |
