Persistent XSS on Aruba 800 Mobility Controller's login page


Arrow  SecurityAlert : 3380
Arrow  CVE : CVE-2007-6054
Arrow  SecurityRisk : Low  Security Risk Low  (About)
Arrow  Remote Exploit : Yes
Arrow  Local Exploit : No
Arrow  Exploit Available : Yes
Arrow  Credit : Jan Fry
Arrow  Published : 20.11.2007

Arrow  Affected Software : Aruba 800 Mobility Controller's



Arrow  Advisory Content :  

Date Found: 17th July 2007

Vendor informed: 23rd July 2007

Confirmed by vendor: 13th September 2007

Description:

Aruba 800 is vulnerable to a persistent XSS on the administrator login
screen.

An unauthenticated user can re-write the hidden parameter 'url' by
requesting a link under the /screens/ directory:

https://internalip:4343/screens/%22/%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert(1)%3C/script%3E

The payload stays intact until another user makes a request under the
/screens/ directory, prior to logging in.

Consequences:

An attacker may be able to cause execution of malicious scripting code in
the browser of an admin user. Such code would run within the security
context of the target domain.

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

Since this XSS is of persistent nature, the admin user wouldn't have to be
tricked to visit a specially-crafted URL, but rather simply visit the Aruba
800 login page at some point.

Severity: High
