Re: Vulnerability kali's tagboard

[security curmudgeon <jericho@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For reference, Kali's tagboard can be found at:
http://www.xentrik.net/php/tagboard.php

: There are some bugs in the kali's tagboard, you can access to the admin 
: system without password!, you can put iframes, scripts... But the most 
: vulnerabilitie is in the ban ip's, you can put this script: " <? 
: system($cmd) ?> " and execute commands in the server with this url: 
: Example: http://web.com/tag/admin/banned.php?&cmd=command.

From the readme.txt:

I suggest you password protect this directory with .htaccess, like so:

******************************************
* Example .htaccess File
******************************************
AuthUserFile /home/username/public_html/tagboard/admin/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName "Tagboard Admin Area"
AuthType Basic

<Limit GET POST>
require valid-user
</Limit>
