[LON-CAPA-admin] more PCI compliance

[Jon Hall]

After much wailing and gnashing of teeth, and with the generous help of many on this mailing list (thank you very much!), I have been able to solve nearly all of the issues which were causing my LON-CAPA server to fail a PCI compliance scan.

Unfortunately, there are still 2 issues that I have been unable to resolve.  I am posting the complete message sent by the scanning company, in case any one can offer any suggestions.  Thanks in advance!

Issue 1:
Title: vulnerable web program (iFoto) 
Impact: A remote attacker could execute arbitrary commands, create or overwrite files, or view files or directories on the web server. 
Data Sent: GET /adm/css/index.php?dir=../../../../../../ HTTP/1.0 
Host: 66.147.103.10 
User- Agent: Mozilla/4.0 
Connection: Keep-alive 
Data Received: span.LC_cusr_emph { 
Resolution: 08/07/07 CVE 2007-4092 A directory traversal vulnerability in the index.php script in iFoto 1.0 allows remote attackers to view the contents of arbitrary directories by placing dot- dot-slash strings into the dir parameter. 
Resolution: Edit the source code of index.php to remove invalid characters from the dir parameter or apply a fix from the vendor when available. 
Risk Factor: Medium/ CVSS2 
Base Score: 5.0 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N) 
CVE: CVE-2007-4092 
BID: 25065


Issue 2:
Title: web program allows cross-site scripting in query string (/adm/login) 
Impact: A malicious web site could cause arbitrary commands to run on a client through a specially crafted link to the vulnerable server. In some cases, this could result in the compromise of the client's cookies, leading to unauthorized access to web applications. 
Data Sent: GET /adm/login?username=&domain=<SCRIPT>alert('SecurityMet rics')</SCRIPT> HTTP/1.0 
Host: 66.147.103.10 
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 
Connection: Keep-alive 
Data Received: codedom = "<SCRIPT>alert('SecurityMetrics')</SCRIPT>"; 
Resolution: Cross-site scripting can be fixed either by creating a customized error page which does not display the URI, or by applying one of the following fixes:
