Technical Details & Description:
================================
A persistent input validation web vulnerability has been discovered in PHP
Melody v3.0 video cms web-application.
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own malicious script codes
with persistent attack vector to
compromise browser to web-application requests from the application-side.
The persistent input validation web vulnerability is located in the `submitted`
parameter of the `edit-video.php`.
Remote attackers with privileged user accounts like editors or moderators are
able to inject own malicious script
code as author that submits. The request method to inject is post and the
execution occurs with persistent attack
vector in the `watch.php` frontend file.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking,
persistent phishing attacks, persistent
external redirects to malicious source and persistent manipulation of affected
application modules.
Request Method(s):
[+] POST
Vulnerable Module(s):
[+] Edit Video
Vulnerable File(s):
[+] edit-video.php
Vulnerable Parameter(s):
[+] submitted
Affected File(s):
[+] watch.php
Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The persistent validation vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers
with privileged editor user account and with low user interaction.
For security demonstration or to reproduce the web vulnerability follow the
provided information and steps below to continue.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be resolved by the following steps ...
1. Encode, escape or filter the vulnerable submitted parameter in the post
method request
2. Restrict all the transmitted parameter by disallowing the usage of special
chars
3. Sanitize the watch.php output location to prevent the execution point
4. Alternativ setup security headers and a web firewall or filter to prevent
further exploitation
