Exploitation Technique:
=======================
Remote


Severity Level:
===============
Medium


Technical Details & Description:
================================
Multiple persistent input validation web vulnerabilities and a filter bypass has been discovered 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 are located in the  `domain names`, `grid__data in grid_columns` and `x-grid3-cell-inner x-grid3-col-name` 
values of the `Basic > Reports` module. Remote attackers are able to inject own script code as domain name to execute the 
context in the show advanced options menu listing (+plus). The attack vector is persistent located on the application-side 
and the request method to inject is POST.

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 separatly 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 live 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.

The security risk of the persistent input validation web vulnerability and fitler bypass is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring 
system) count of 3.7. 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.


Request Method(s):
				[+] GET
				[+] POST

Vulnerable Module(s):
				[+] Basic > Reports > Advanced Options > Show Advanced Options

Vulnerable Input Field(s):
				[+] Add Domain

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
				[+] domain name

Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The persistent input validation web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers with a low privileged web-application user account and low or medium 
user interaction. For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue.

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 section.
