Vulnerability Description:
Multiple Persistent Cross-Site vulnerabilities were found in Endpoint
Protector v4.0.4.2 [Virtual
Appliance], because the application fails to sanitize the response before
it is returned to the user.
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary script and HTML code in a
user's browser session. This may
allow the attacker to steal the user's cookie and to launch further attacks.
The parameters "client_device[name]" and "client_device[description]" in
/index.php/clientdevice/create are not properly sanitized.
The parameters "client_machine[name]", "client_machine[domain]",
"client_machine[workgroup]" and
"client_machine[location]" in /index.php/clientmachine/create are not
properly sanitized.
The parameter "group[name]" in /index.php/mgroup/create is not properly
sanitized.
Other parameters might also be affected.

Proof of Concept:
* The parameter "client_device[name]" in the POST request has been set to:
<script>alert(document.cookie)</script>
* The parameter "client_device[description]" in the POST request has been
set to:
<script>alert(1)</script>

Impact:
An affected user may unintentionally execute scripts or actions written by
an attacker. In addition, an
attacker may obtain authorization cookies that would allow him to gain
unauthorized access to the
application.
In this particular case, any user with permission to access the
administration console could gain "super
admin" privileges by stealing the session cookie of another user with this
permission.
