SecureSphere MX Management Server Alert Script Insertion

Secunia Advisory: SA29439  
Release Date: 2008-03-21
Last Update: 2008-03-25

Critical:
Moderately critical
Impact: Cross Site Scripting
Where: From remote
Solution Status: Vendor Workaround

OS:SecureSphere MX Management Server 5.x


CVE reference:CVE-2008-1463 (Secunia mirror)



Description:
Shachar Bar (Berezniski) has reported a vulnerability in Imperva SecureSphere, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks.

Certain requests are not properly filtered before being displayed. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in an administrator's browser session in context of an affected site when the administrator views the alert page.

Successful exploitation requires that the specially crafted request triggers an alert that e.g. requires a manual action of the administrator and that SecureSphere is not configured to block cross-site scripting attacks.

Solution:
For SecureSphere 5.0 build 5082 customers:
Use Release 5082 Patch MNG.
http://emea.salesforce.com/servlet/se...20000000082L&pPid=50120000000GmI2

Other SecureSphere 5.0 customers:
Reportedly, a patch will be available on April 14, 2008. The vendor recommends to upgrade to Release 5082 and apply the patch above or follow the workaround. Please see the vendor's advisory for more information.
