http://www.michael-wagner.de/software/phpstats/
Description
phpstats is a tool creating statistic information about a file tree. Note that
the name is ambigious, there's more than one tool called phpstats.
The application is vulnerable to simple Cross Site Scripting, which can be
used to steal authentication information from other webapps if they're
installed on the same hostname.
Example
Assuming phpstats is installed on http://localhost/phpstats/, one can inject
JavaScript with:
http://localhost/phpstats/phpstats.php?baseDir=&mode=run
Workaround/Fix
Don't use phpstats on a hostname where other web applications are installed.
Vendor has not replied and not fixed the issue yet.
