IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data

WHERE:

SOFTWARE:

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Slash, which can be
exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks and by
malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

1) Input passed via the "id" parameter to the application is not
properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

2) Input passed via the "userfield" parameter to the application 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 CVS version R_2_5_0_94. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Apply vendor patch.
