i know bugtraq doesn't accept vulnerability on one site, but the following

info is important; please suggest a forum for me to post.



----=======------





XSSatEGOLD-Content-Tech

XSS flaw found at "https://www.e-gold.com"

technically, it's nothing new.

XSS at E-gold is very dangerous. E-gold is one of the most popular way to

do international business. and unlike credit card system, e-gold sent, it

never comes back. there is no refund policy.

so stealing passphrase means stealing real gold.

it's important, so i take it seriously.

[exp]

technically, there is only one thing important for XSS attackers:

some CGI can only be found when you are logged in, but they can be reached

even if you are not logged in.

of course, the module dealing with logged-in users is different from the

one dealing with un-logged-in users.

so, you have to test in both situations to ensure it's not XSS vulnerable.

I'd crawl over an acre of "Visual This++" and "Integrated Development That"
to get to gcc, Emacs, and gdb.  Thank you.
