Technical Description

Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in bitweaver, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands or scripting code.

The first flaw is due to an input validation error in the "newsletters/edition.php" script when processing the "tk" parameter, which could be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

The second flaw is due to errors in the "articles/edit.php" and "blogs/post.php" scripts when processing input passed to the "title" field, which could be exploited by attackers to cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the user's browser in the security context of an affected Web site.

Note : It is also possible to disclosure the installation path by accessing certain scripts directly or by supplying malformed parameters (e.g. "sort_mode").
