Risk : javascript execution
Description: SCT Campus Pipeline is the Web platform of choice at over 175
institutions. It improves efficiency, builds community, and provides freedom
of choice by integrating disparate systems and applications into a unified
whole. SCT Campus Pipeline provides an institutionð ðs constituents ð!ð
students, faculty, administration, and alumni ð!ð with centralized Web access
to information, services, and communities.
Javascript Execution: The email handling portion of this software displays
certain attachments such as; html, bmp. Jpg, gif, etc, in the body of the
email. It does a noble job of filtering scripting in html files but certain
on event handles remain untouched such as: onload(), onmouseover(),
onclick(), etc. This is a huge issue seeing as the html page is logged in
with the same permissions as the user who views it. The software also uses
javascript functions for all of its commands. This allows an hmlt page
execute any command such as deletemessage() from . This such instance will delete the email with
that html attached to it. When linked to another page with u can execute as much javascript, or any
other scripting method as you would like. This hole leads to an attached
html having full control over the victims email account just by the victim
viewing the email. Because the attacker would have the users session still
set, he could potentially execute any command this software uses, such as
check grades etcð8ð
Solution: The easiest way would be to just disallow previewing of
attachments. No other web email service allows this, and for good reason.
Another solution would be to filter all onevent handles such as onload(),
onmouseover(), onclick(), etc.
Credits: Credits goto http://hackthissite.org. It provided a nice, open,
legal environment for me to try new things and learn from those who know. A
place where you are not reprimanded even if u deface a page or two. A place
where I started with no knowledge and in less than a year found new
vulnerabilities of my own. Thank you http://hackthissite.org. Lab rats:
Ashley, Amy, Nick, Shrinidhi, Charbel and most importantly to Halley, you
give me the strength and courage to do all that I do, without you I am
nothing. Thank you sweetheart.
Exploit: This exemplifies three different onevent handles used:
;
;
This exploit will delete the current message:
This exploit will open a new email message with your desired:
Creating a fake session timeout screen with login could also be a problem as
