Description
During its own research, CERT Polska has found a Stored XSS (Cross-site scripting) vulnerability in both MegaBIP (currently being maintained) and SmodBIP (out-of-support) CMS software. It allows any non-registered user who knows the administration panel address to embed a script that might be executed in an administrator's browser. One of possible outcomes is creation of a new account with administrative privileges, leading to a full website compromise. The ID CVE-2023-5378 has been assigned to this vulnerability.
MegaBIP 4.36.2 and SmodBIP 2.21 (latest available) are vulnerable. It is safe to assume that all versions of SmodBIP and MegaBIP <= 4.36.2 are affected. MegaBIP 5.08 was tested and is not vulnerable. However, a precise range of vulnerable versions remains unknown.
