TITLE:
Flyspray Cross-Site Scripting and User Enumeration

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA29215

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/29215/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Exposure of system information

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Flyspray 0.x
http://secunia.com/product/5995/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability and a weakness have been reported in Flyspray, which
can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks or identify valid user accounts.

1) Input passed via the "item_summary" parameter to
"index.php?do=details" 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.

2) The weakness is caused due to different error messages being
returned depending on whether an unsuccessful login attempt is
performed with a valid or invalid username. This can be exploited to
facilitate brute force attacks and obtain valid usernames.

The vulnerability and the weakness are reported in version 0.9.9.4.
Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 0.9.9.5, which fixes vulnerability #1.

Edit the source code to ensure that a single general error message is
returned on a failed login.
