Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in namazu.cgi in Namazu before 2.0.18 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via UTF-7 encoded input, related to failure to set the charset, a different vector than CVE-2004-1318 and CVE-2001-1350.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2008-1468 is a cross-site scripting issue in Namazu’s namazu.cgi search interface before version 2.0.18. A remote attacker could cause a user’s browser to run injected script or HTML through UTF-7 encoded input when charset handling is missing or unsafe. Exposure is limited to systems running Namazu’s CGI search component before 2.0.18, especially if namazu.cgi is reachable by untrusted users over the web. Treat this as a targeted legacy web exposure issue, not a broad emergency. Prioritize internet-facing Namazu CGI deployments and older managed systems that may still include pre-2.0.18 packages. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Namazu to version 2.0.18 or later where applicable.; Apply relevant vendor packages or advisories from Namazu, Fedora, SUSE, or HP.; Restrict public access to namazu.cgi until remediation is complete..
