| Detailed Description |
The TikiWiki, according to its version number, has a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the tiki-error.php. Tiki CMS/Groupware (aka TikiWiki) is a freely available Content Management System (CMS) and Groupware written in PHP. TikiWiki versions prior to 1.7.8 are vulnerable to a cross-site scripting vulnerability, caused by improper filtering of user-supplied input in the tiki-error.php script. 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 TikiWiki installed on the remote Web server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
