Advisory Content : Name Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability in Sophos Anti-Virus Systems Affected Sophos Anti-Virus, version 6.5.4 R2 Severity Medium Category Cross Site Scripting Author Context Information Security Ltd Advisory 6th September 2007 Description ----------- A ZIP archive containing a virus signature with a malformed file name will cause a Cross Site Scripting vulnerability to be triggered from within the Sophos Anti Virus client. Analysis -------- When Sophos anti-virus scans a specially crafted ZIP archive containing a XSS attack string, it will internally log the string. When this information is accessed via the Sophos client (SavMain.exe) the XSS attack string is unencoded. When the print function is called, the application can be used to run arbitrary code on the target machine from an external attacker?s submitted file. Technologies Affected --------------------- Sophos Anti-Virus, version 6.5.4 R2 Resolution ---------- Update to version 6.5.8 or 7.0. Vendor Response --------------- Sophos have patched this issue in version 7.01.
