Product:
Inchoo Facebook Connect (Magento Plugin)
Vulnerability:
Reflected cross-site scripting.
Details:
Within ./app/code/community/Inchoo/Facebook/Block/Channel.php
return '<script src="'.($this->isSecure() ? 'https://' :
'http://').'connect.facebook.net/'.($this->getData('locale') ?
$this->getData('locale') : $this->getLocale()).'/all.js"></script>';
locale isn't escaped, so it is possible to submit <script> tags which
will be executed by the browser.
