TITLE:
PyForum Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA37764

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/37764/

DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in pyForum, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site request
forgery and script insertion attacks.

1) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP
requests without performing any validity checks to verify the
requests. This can be exploited to e.g. change a user's credentials
if a logged-in user visits a malicious web site.

2) Input passed via BBcode tags when creating a topic or posting a
response is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be
exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be
executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site
when the malicious data is being viewed.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.0.3. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not browse untrusted sites or follow untrusted links while being
logged-in to the application.
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
