| Detailed Description |
The Invision Power Board, according to its version number, has a JavaScript injection vulnerability in the 'COLOR' SML tag. Invision Power Board is a PHP-based Web forum software package, distributed by Invision Power Services, Inc.. Invision Power Board versions 1.3.1 and earlier allow a remote attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript via a signature file or a message post containing an IMG tag within a COLOR tag whose style is set to background:url. This vulnerability could permit a remote attacker to create a malicious URI link that includes hostile HTML and script code. If this link were to be followed, the hostile code may be rendered in the web browser of the victim user. This would occur in the security context of the affected web site and may allow for theft of cookie-based authentication credentials or other attacks.
* Note: This check solely relied on the version number of the remote Invision Power Board installed on the web server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
