Message-ID: <4982E37A.3070803@procheckup.com> Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2009 11:24:42 +0000 From: ProCheckUp Research <research@...checkup.com> To: <bugtraq@...urityfocus.com> Subject: PR08-23: XSS on Novell GroupWise WebAccess PR08-23: XSS on Novell GroupWise WebAccess Vulnerability found: 2nd October 2008 Vendor contacted: 3rd October 2008 Advisory publicly released: 30th January 2009 Severity: Medium Credits: Richard Brain of ProCheckUp Ltd (www.procheckup.com). ProCheckUp thanks Novell for working with us in such a professional manner. Successfully tested on: Novell GroupWise WebAccess 7.0.3 Novell has confirmed the following versions to be affected by this vulnerability: GroupWise 6.5x GroupWise 7.0, 7.01, 7.02x, 7.03 GroupWise 8.0 (shipping 8.0 release only) CVE reference: CVE-2009-0273 Description: Novell GroupWise WebAcces is vulnerable to a vanilla XSS (non-persistent) via POST requests. Although filtering takes place for GET requests, POST requests are ignored. Vulnerable server-side script: '/gw/webacc', Unfiltered parameter: 'User.id', 'Library.queryText' Proof of concept: _As kindly requested by Novell, ProCheckUp will delay publication of the PoC details to allow GroupWise customers time to apply the recommended security patches._ Consequences: An attacker may be able to cause execution of malicious scripting code in the browser of a victim user who visits a malicious third-party page. Such code would run within the security context of the target domain. This type of attack can result in non-persistent defacement of the target site, or the redirection of confidential information (i.e.: session IDs, address books, emails) to unauthorised third parties.
