Arrow  SecurityRisk : Low  Security Risk Low  (About)
Arrow  Remote Exploit : Yes

Arrow  Exploit Available : Yes
Arrow  Credit : Jan Fry & Adrian Pastor
Arrow  Published : 15.11.2007

Arrow  Affected Software : F5 FirePass 4100 SSL VPN version 6.0 - 6.0.1
F5 FirePass 4100 SSL VPN version 5.4 - 5.5.2



Arrow  Advisory Content :  

Date Found: 19th June 2007

Successfully tested on: version 5.5.2

F5 Networks has confirmed the following versions to be vulnerable:

FirePass versions 5.4 - 5.5.2

FirePass versions 6.0 - 6.0.1

Description:

F5 Networks FirePass 4100 SSL VPN is vulnerable to XSS within the "backurl"
parameter processed by the "download_plugin.php3" server-side script.

No authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability.

Consequences:

An attacker may be able to cause execution of malicious scripting code in
the browser of a user who visits a specially-crafted URL to an F5 Firepass
device, or visits a malicious page that makes a request to such URL. Such
code would run within the security context of the target domain.

This type of attack can result in non-persistent defacement of the target
site, or the redirection of confidential information (i.e. admin session
IDs) to unauthorised third parties.

Severity: Medium/High
