VDA Labs Advisory:
--------------------------
Ipswitch FTP XSS leads to FTP server compromise. The Vendor has been
notified, and given the PoC.


Synopsis:
------------
There is XSS vulnerability when the WS_FTP server logs client FTP
commands. All user commands are logged. When the FTP command is invalid
(error), special characters are converted to HTML chars (< = <, > =
><i>), and logged. However, when the FTP command is valid, there is no
</I>sanity check. Thus, it is possible to inject HTML and Javascript into
the log file.

The WS_FTP administration interface (IIS web application written in ASP)
has a view log option. When logs are viewed, it is possible to steal
the administrator cookie, or even better, DIRECTLY create a new user (or
admin) account for FTP server.

We've created a little PoC that will create a new system administrator
account when the admin view logs. The PoC is simple and injects an
<iframe> that leads to another html file that creates the new account.
