Subject: [FD] osTicket multiple vulnerabilities
=============================================
- Release date: February 04th, 2016
- Discovered by: Giovanni Cerrato and Enrico Cinquini
- Severity: High
=============================================
I. VULNERABILITY
-------------------------
osTicket multiple vulnerabilities.
II. INTRODUCTION
-------------------------
Last version of osTicket (v1.9.12) is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
III. DESCRIPTION
-------------------------
1) UPLOAD HTML FILE
It is possible to upload files attached to a ticket at URL:
https://hostname/upload/open.php
There are some controls to block not allowed file (e.g php,html) but they
are only client-side and not server-side so they can be easily bypassed
using tool like Burp suite.They will be uploaded and reachable at specific
URL like the following example:
https://hostname/file.php?key=qycj1msethqx49ilidrwxrurvebbsipa&expires=1447372800&signature=6ee71ea7dee17cac30a884f4cf823c6734e1115d
This vulnerability could be used for example to perform XSS attack or to
upload a fake login page.
2) MISSIMG FUNCTION LEVEL ACCESS CONTROL
It is possible to access to some contents of the web application without
authentication. It is allowed to view all ticket attachment only by calling
their URLs like following:
https://hostname/file.php?key=qycj1msethqx49ilidrwxrurvebbsipa&expires=1447372800&signature=6ee71ea7dee17cac30a884f4cf823c6734e1115d
.
This vulnerability combined with unrestricted HTML upload can be used to
realize phishing and/or XSS attack via email. To achieve this tasks anyone
needs to upload an HTML file containing malicious Javascript or phishing
page and then spread the associated URL.
3) STORED CROSS SITE SCRITPING
The application is vulnerable to some stored XSS attack.
URL: https://hostname/scp/users.php
Functionality: Add User
Form parameter affected: Internal Notes
URL: https://hostname/scp/orgs.php
Functionality: Add Organization
Form parameter affected: Name, Internal Notes
URL https://hostname/scp/categories.php
Functionality: Add New Category
Form parameter affected: Category Description, Internal Notes
URL https://hostname/scp/departments.php
Functionality: Add New Department
Form parameter affected: Department Signature
URL: https://hostname/scp/teams.php
Functionality: Add New Team
Form parameter affected: Admin Notes, Name
URL: https://hostname/scp/groups.php
Functionality: Add New Group
Form parameter affected: Admin Notes
URL: https://hostname/scp/banlist.php
Functionality: Ban New Email
Form parameter affected: Admin Notes
URL: https://hostname/scp/profile.php
Functionality: Edit profile
Form parameter affected: Signature
A proof of concept can be obtained using the following Javascript code:
<IFRAME onload=alert(1);></IFRAME>
4) SESSION FIXATION
The application does not regenerate session id cookie (OSTSESESSID) after
authentication so it is prone to session fixation attack. This
vulnerability can be used to hijack a valid user session.
IV. BUSINESS IMPACT
-------------------------
An attacker could upload malicious file, hijack a valid user session,
perform XSS or phishing attacks and access to sensible information.
V. SYSTEMS AFFECTED
-------------------------
Version 1.9.12 is vulnerable.
VI. SOLUTION
-------------------------
It's necessary to:
- implement a strong upload filter to prevent the upload of malicious file
- implement an input validation mechanism to avoid being vulnerable to XSS
injection
- review and correct access control to prevent that unauthenticated users
can access to sensible documents
