Severity Level:
===============
Medium
Technical Details & Description:
================================
A persistent input validation web vulnerability is detected in the Barracuda Networks WebFilter Model 610Vx appliance web-application.
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own malicious script codes on the application-side of the affected service, module or function.
The vulnerability is located in the `Basic > Reports` module in the `domain names`, `grid__data in grid_columns` and `x-grid3-cell-inner x-grid3-col-name`
values. Remote attackers are able to inject own script code as domain name to execute the context in the show advanced options menu listing (+plus) with
persistent attack vector.
To bypass the invalid domain exception the attacker first need to include a valid domain, in the second step he change the domain name value by a
session tamper. Reason behind the technique is that the input field validation is seperatly done to the request method validation. The restriction
of the invalid input field check can be bypassed by usage of a session tamper to change the input field context after the first direct input encode
of the web filter application. Another problem is located in the same module which affects the buttom name item listing.
Exploitation of the persistent web vulnerability requires low user interaction and a local low privileged web-application account. Successful exploitation
of the vulnerability results in session hijacking (customers), persistent phishing, persistent external redirects or persistent manipulation of connected
or affected module context.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by a secure parse and encode of the input to add domains. Ensure that the application GET to POST requests are restricted and filtered
to prevent further attacks in the vulnerable add domains module.
Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the persistent input validation web vulnerabilities are estimated as medium(+).
