Descriptions

Interpretation conflict in includes/mainfile.php in PHP-Nuke 7.9 and later allows remote attackers to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by replacing the ">" in the tag with a "<", which bypasses the regular expressions that sanitize the data, but is automatically corrected by many web browsers. NOTE: it could be argued that this vulnerability is due to a design limitation of many web browsers; if so, then this should not be treated as a vulnerability in PHP-Nuke.

Conflicto de interpretación en includes/mainfile.php en PHP-Nuke 7.9 y anteriores permite a atacantes remotos realizar ataques de secuencias de comandos en sitios cruzados (XSS) reemplazando el ">" en una etiqueta con un "<" lo que evita las expresiones regulares que sanean los datos, pero es automáticamente corregido por muchos navegadores web. NOTA: podría ser argumentado que esto es debido a una limitación de diseño de muchos navegadores web; si es así, esto no debería ser tratado como una vulnerabilidad de PHP-Nuke.
