Checks for EXIF data script insertion vulnerability in Gallery Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP application that is susceptible to a cross-site scripting attack. Description : The remote host is running Gallery, a web-based photo album. According to its banner, the version of Gallery installed on the remote host is prone to script insertion attacks because it does not sanitize malicious EXIF data stored in image files. Using a specially-crafted image file, a possible hacker can exploit this flaw to cause arbitrary HTML and script code to be executed in a user's browser within the context of the affected application.
