Subject: [FD] [RT-SA-2018-001] Arbitrary Redirect in Tuleap
Advisory: Arbitrary Redirect in Tuleap
RedTeam Pentesting discovered an arbitrary redirect vulnerability in the
redirect mechanism of the application lifecycle management platform
Tuleap.
Details
=======
Product: Tuleap
Affected Versions: > 9.17.99.93
Fixed Versions: >= 9.17.99.93
Vulnerability Type: Arbitrary Redirect
Security Risk: low
Vendor URL: https://www.tuleap.org/
Vendor Status: fixed version released
Vendor Issue URL: https://tuleap.net/plugins/tracker/?aid=11136
Advisory URL: https://www.redteam-pentesting.de/advisories/rt-sa-2018-001
Advisory Status: published
CVE: GENERIC-MAP-NOMATCH
CVE URL: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=GENERIC-MAP-NOMATCH
Introduction
============
"Tuleap is an open source tool for Scrum, Kanban, waterfall,
requirement management. Plan, track, code and collaborate on software
projects, you get everything at hand."
(from the Tuleap website [1])
More Details
============
RedTeam Pentesting discovered an arbitrary redirect vulnerability in the
way Tuleap handles redirects. Usually this function is only used in
Tuleap after an successful login to assigned trackers, however the
redirect can be used indepented of whether a user is authenticated to
the application. While the application employs a URL filter to prevent
arbitrary redirects, the URL filter can be bypassed. This allows
attackers to redirect users to a different website, if a user opens an
attacker prepared URL.
The filter can be bypassed by using protocol relative URLs, which omit
the leading protocol identifier. These arbitrary URLs are prefixed with
two slashes, which instructs the browser to use the same protocol as the
current page. This behaviour is specified in RFC 3986 [2] in section
5.4.
Proof of Concept
================
The following URL to an example installation of Tuleap will redirect
users to an attacker controlled website:
https://example.net/my/redirect.php?return_to=//attacker.com
Workaround
==========
Currently no workaround is known.
Fix
===
Upgrade to at least tuleap version 9.17.99.93.
Security Risk
=============
Attackers may convice users to use a prepared link to access a valid
Tuleap instance, which then redirects users to a fake login page. This
can greatly increase the effectiveness of phishing attacks and may allow
attackers to steal user credentials more effectively. However, no
credentials or sensitive information can be extracted directly.
Furthermore, the website to which users are going to be redirected will
be displayed in the browser location bar so that users may identify the
attack. Therefore, we rate this vulnerability with a low risk.
Nevertheless, it is very easy for attackers to identify this
vulnerability and create malicious URLs, which makes it very likely that
attackers might abuse this.
