The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own malicious script codes to the application-side of the vulnerable context function or service module. The vulnerability is located in the name input field of the inbox souds flowdock api service. Remote attackers with low privilege application user accounts are able to inject own malicious script codes to the application-side of the service. The request method to inject malicious context is POST and the attack vector is located on the application-side of the flowdock api web-service. Remote attackers are able to inject malicious script codes to the application-side to compromise flowdock accounts by session manipulation or session evasion attacks. The security risk of the persistent input validation web vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 3.8. Exploitation of the persistent input validation web vulnerability requires a low privilege web-application user account and low or medium user interaction. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, persistent phishing attacks, persistent redirect to external sources and persistent manipulation of affected or connected service module context. Request Method(s): [+] POST Vulnerable Module(s): [+] Inbox Source - Flowdock API Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+] description Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The security vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers with low privilege application user account and low or medium user interaction.
