Published


Affected Product(s):
====================
CWP
Product: CentOS Web Panel - (CWP) 0.9.8.12


Exploitation Technique:
=======================
Remote


Severity Level:
===============
Medium


Technical Details & Description:
================================
Multiple persistent validation web vulnerabilities has been discovered in the 
official CentOS Web Panel v0.9.8.12.
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own malicious script codes 
to the application-side of the 
affected vulnerable modules.

The vulnerabilities are located in the `id` and `email_address` parameters of 
the `index.php` file POST method request. 
Remote attackers are able to inject script code to the POST method request to 
manipulate the item listing output context. 
The request method to inject is POST and the attack vector is persistent on the 
application-side. The injection points are 
the both add POST method requests and the execution point occurs in the output 
location of both modules.

The security risk of the web vulnerabilities are estimated as medium with a 
cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 4.4. 
Exploitation of the persistent web vulnerabilities requires a low privileged 
web-application user account and low user interaction. 
Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities results in session hijacking, 
persistent phishing attacks, persistent external redirects 
to malicious source and persistent manipulation of affected or connected 
application modules.

Request Method(s):
[+] POST

Vulnerable Module(s):
[+] phpini_editor
[+] mail_add-new
                                
Vulnerable File(s):
[+] index.php

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
[+] id
[+] email_address


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The web vulnerabilities can be exploited by remote attackers with low 
privileged user account and low user interaction.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerabilities can be patched by a sanitize in the vulnerable `id` and 
`email address` parameters of the index.php file POST method request. 
Disallow usage of special chars and restrict the parameter input to prevent 
script code injection attacks. Filter in the output error location 
or the item listing the vulnerable location were the code point occurs.


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the application-side input validation vulnerabilities in 
the web-application are estimated as medium. (CVSS 4.4)
