Security Discussion

Zenphoto is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.

Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would run in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible.

Zenphoto 1.4.0.3 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

Proof of Concept and Security Exploits

Attackers can use a browser to exploit this issue.
