this fix relates to http://secunia.com/advisories/24358/

in pop_profile.asp look for the following lines of code

parts = split(rs("M_MSN"),"@")

in a clean pop_profile this will be on line 334 and again on line 609
replace that line with the line below.
parts = split(ChkString(rs("M_MSN"), "display"),"@")

Alternatively you can just disable the MSN messanger link from the admin options<

Thanks Huw!
I wanted to check to see if anybody had attempted to exploit this on any of my fora and so I ran the following SQL query:
select MEMBER_ID, M_MSN from FORUM_MEMBERS where M_MSN != '';
and then browsed the M_MSN field for script.
Was I looking in the right place? i.e. Is that where the script would have been placed?<

Hi,
I founded this vulnerability and your solution doesn't really work, I could exploit it on my test site with no problems at all.
The single quotes are the real problem, using "display" only replaces double quotes and "plus" signs.
Bye

P.S.: also the vulnerability is found in pop_messengers.asp<

perhaps in future you could follow the guidlines of secunia and inform us the developers of your findings rather than being a twat and making a public report about it.<

The fix to this issue is to ensure that any data inserted into the MSN field is a valid email value. As such, here are the changes needed to properly validate the input to the MSN field.
1. register.asp
At approximately line#293, where you now have

Code:


                if strMSN = "1" and trim(Request.Form("MSN")) <> "" then
		   if EmailField(Request.Form("MSN")) = 0 then 
			Err_Msg = Err_Msg & "<li>You Must enter a valid MSN Messenger Username</li>"
		    end if
		end if

Replace it by

Code:


         if strMSN = "1" and trim(Request.Form("MSN")) <> "" then

            set regEx = New RegExp
	    regEx.Global = true
            regEx.IgnoreCase = true
	    regEx.Pattern =  "^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@(?:[A-Z0-9-]+\.)+[A-Z]{2,4}$"
	    retVal = regEx.Test(Request.Form("MSN"))
	    If Not retVal Then
	       Err_Msg = Err_Msg & "<li>You Must enter a valid MSN Messenger Username</li>"
	    end if
	end if

2. Pop_profile.asp
Approximately at line# 1065 and line# 1386 (line# already including the first change), where you now have

Code:


             if strMSN = "1" and trim(Request.Form("MSN")) <> "" then
		if EmailField(Request.Form("MSN")) = 0 then 
		   Err_Msg = Err_Msg & "<li>You Must enter a valid MSN Messenger Username</li>"
		end if
	     end if

replace it by

Code:


          if strMSN = "1" and trim(Request.Form("MSN")) <> "" then

            set regEx = New RegExp
	    regEx.Global = true
            regEx.IgnoreCase = true
	    regEx.Pattern =  "^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@(?:[A-Z0-9-]+\.)+[A-Z]{2,4}$"

	    retVal = regEx.Test(Request.Form("MSN"))
	    If Not retVal Then
		Err_Msg = Err_Msg & "<li>You Must enter a valid MSN Messenger Username</li>"
	    end if
	end if
