         Umbraco Open Proxy Vulnerability

Advisory ID: MATTA-2012-001
CVE reference: CVE-2012-1301
Affected platforms: Umbraco
Version: 4.x 
Date: 2012-January-26
Security risk: High
Vulnerability: Umbraco bundles a script behaving like an open-proxy
Researcher: Florent Daigniere
Vendor Status: Notified
Vulnerability Disclosure Policy:
 https://www.trustmatta.com/advisories/matta-disclosure-policy-01.txt
Permanent URL:
 https://www.trustmatta.com/advisories/MATTA-2012-001.txt

=====================================================================
Description:

Vulnerable installations of Umbraco allow unauthenticated users to
 abuse the script FeedProxy.aspx into proxying requests on their
 behalf through the "url" parameter.

=====================================================================
Impact

Anyone with access to the management interface of umbraco can abuse
 FeedProxy script into proxying requests for them.

The impact of such vulnerability is difficult to measure and depends
 on the specifics of the deployment. Typically, this can allow
 attackers to connect to other systems, bypassing controls or be
 abused to trick users and browsers into performing actions they
 wouldn't otherwise consider (XSS, phishing, ...).

This particular vulnerability can also be abused to create a powerful
 Denial of Service: a single recursive proxy-request will take the
 application server down and, depending on the configuration of the
 server, might severely affect unrelated services.

=====================================================================
Versions affected:

Umbraco version 4.7.0 tested.

=====================================================================
Threat mitigation

Matta consultants recommend deleting the FeedProxy script or
 upgrading umbraco to version 5+.

=====================================================================
Credits

This vulnerability was discovered and researched by Florent Daigniere
 from Matta Consulting.
