Account Compromise Via Cookie Poisoning
-------------------------------------------
In order to steal another users identity, all an attacker
needs to know is thier encrypted password. This is not
very hard to obtain using the XSS as described above, or
other methods. Once an attacker has this info, all they
have to do is login to thier normal account to get a valid
session id, close the browser, replace thier username and
encrypted pass with that of the victim, and return to the
site where they will be recognized as the victim.



password.asp Password Reset Vulnerability
-------------------------------------------
This is the most serious of the vulns, as it requries no
real effort and leaves the entire snitz forum open to attack.
All an attacker has to do is request a forgotten password, save
the password reset page offline,edit the member id to the desired
member id, and submit the form. The members password will then
be reset to that of the attackers choosing.



How I can fix?

snitz forum 3.4.03 is affected!!!

this is a very old vunerability(> 3 years), so I'm not sure which topic actually relates to the fix

In fact I'm not sure that the fix was released seperately but rather was released as part of the 3.4.04 update

Its probably in DEV Bug Reports (Closed) or as an archived topic in either Bug Reports forum.

Might also be in the DEV Bug Reports (Open) Archive. Wouldn't think it would be, but you never know...

There are lots of security bug fixes since 3.4.03.
http://forum.snitz.com/forum/forum.asp?ARCHIVE=true&FORUM_ID=118

Not sure exactly which one applies to your specific problem.
Best thing would be to upgrade to the latest version.

If you don't want to upgrade, then apply all the security fixes since September 15, 2002. That's when 3.4.03 was released.

EDIT: This looks a fix for the password.asp file: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=45275

But as I said, add all the fixes since September 15, 2002.
