Cross Site Scripting in PsychoStats
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
<http://www.psychostats.com/> PsychoStats is "a statistics generator for
games. Currently there is support for a handful of Half-Life "MODs"
including Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat, and Natural Selection.
PsychoStats gathers statistics from the log files that game servers create
by reading through the logs and then calculating detailed statistics for
players, maps, weapons and clans. These detailed statistics are stored in
a MySQL database which are then viewed online from your website using a
set of PHP web pages". A cross site scripting vulnerability exists in
Jason Morriss's PsychoStats 'login' parameter.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems:
* PsychoStats version 2.2.4
Immune Systems:
* PsychoStats version 2.2.4b
Cross Site Scripting:
The vulnerability exists due to user supplied input not being checked
properly. Below is an example.
http://www.example.com/stats/login.php?login=[XSS]
This vulnerability could be used to steal cookie based authentication
credentials within the scope of the current domain, or render hostile code
in a victim's browser.
Solution:
The vendor was contacted, responded very promptly and said he will be
addressing the issue soon and has released an updated version of the
software: <http://www.psychostats.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11022>
