DESCRIPTION:
A weakness and two vulnerabilities have been reported in Pulse Pro
CMS, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive
information and conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
1) The application stores backups with predictable file names inside
the data/backups directory, which can be exploited to disclose
sensitive information by downloading a file.
This is related to:
SA44315
2) Input passed to the "d" parameter in index.php (when "p" is set to
"blocks") and the "post_id" parameter in index.php (when "p" is set to
"edit-post") is not properly sanitised before being returned to the
user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code
in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.
The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.7.2. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Restrict access to the "data/backups" directory (e.g. via .htaccess).
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
