TikiWiki is vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks.
TikiWiki is a web-based groupware and content management system (CMS), using PHP, ADOdb and Smarty.
Due to improper input validation, TikiWiki can be exploited to perform cross-site scripting attacks.
A remote attacker could exploit this to inject and execute malicious script code or to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, potentially compromising the victim's browser.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All TikiWiki users should upgrade to the latest version:
Code Listing 3.1: Resolution |
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/tikiwiki-1.9.1.1" |
Note: Users with the vhosts USE flag set should manually use webapp-config to finalize the update.
