Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline: ================================== 2013-09-26: Researcher Notification & Coordination (Benjamin Kunz Mejri) 2013-09-27: Vendor Notification (DELL SonicWall Security Team) 2014-10-06: Vendor Response/Feedback (DELL SonicWall Security Team) 2014-02-18: Vendor Fix/Patch (DELL SonicWall Developer Team) 2014-03-06: Public Disclosure (Vulnerability Laboratory) Discovery Status: ================= Published Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: =============== Low Technical Details & Description: ================================ A client-side cross site scripting web vulnerability has been discovered in the SonicWall backend web-server with which appliance firewalls communicate. The cross site scripting web vulnerability allows an attacker to manipulate client-side browser requests through a vulnerable application module/function. The cross site scripting vulnerability is located in the dashboard.jsp file when processing to request via GET method manipulated `sn` values. The injected script code executes on the client-side of the web-application in the dashboard resource checkbox listing backend. This issue affects sonicwall backend servers with which firewalls communicate. The attack vector is non-persistent (client-side) and the request method is GET. The security risk of the client-side web vulnerability is estimated as low(+) with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 2.0(+)|(-)2.1. Exploitation of the client-side web vulnerability requires no privileged web-application user account but low or medium user interaction. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, client-side phishing, client-side external redirects, malicious GET method requests and client-side manipulation of the vulnerable or connected module context. Request Method(s): [+] [GET] Vulnerable Module(s): [+] stats Vulnerable File(s): [+] dashboard.jsp Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+] sn Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The client-side cross site scripting web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without privileged application user account and with low or medium user interaction.
