Admin.php XSS Patch Revision II
SecurityYesterday I released a hot off the press admin.php patch. I learned of the exploit only 10 minutes prior to it. Today I found out that the graphic image doesn't show up because of it, so without further adieu, here is version number 2 such that the image works.

if ($argv[0] != "") {
if (!preg_match("/op=gfx/", "$argv[0]")) {
if (!preg_match("/admin.php/", "$refer")) {
echo "Nuke Cops Loves You http://nukecops.com";
exit;
}
}
}

Well if version 1 works for you, then go with that. If it doesn't use this version 2. As to Protector, I haven't gotten that far. I'd much rather work on a different solution instead of enhancing this patch. Do you need those pop-up windows or can you just browse it all in the same window?



I don't get the problem... (Score: 1)

BEWARE. There is a new cross site browser scripting exploit where authentic PHP-Nuke admins may inadvertantly create new authors, remove authors, and basically do any admin.php functions without their knowledge!

This makes no sense to me. Who is the "their" in "without their knowlege"? It sounds to me like nuke admins can do admin functions without their own knowledge?

Or is it saying that this exploit allows admins with limited privilege to override the limitations and do things that they aren't supposed to do-- without the knowlege of the superadmin?

I'm just confused. If i'm the only admin on my site, do I need to worry about this?

This patch breaks the ability to edit messages from the home (i.e. index.php) page. This adds it back:

if ($argv[0] != "") {
if (!preg_match("/op=gfx/", "$argv[0]")) {
if (!preg_match("/admin.php/", "$refer")) {
if (!preg_match("/op=editmsg/", "$argv[0]")) {
echo "Nuke Cops Loves You http://nukecops.com";
exit;
}
}
}
}

Fellows,

I tried this and didn´t allow me to admin the blocks ... it means, I can´t go into:

/admin.php?op=BlocksAdmin

I tried both versions without success .... any idea??
