Authentication is not\r\nrequired to exploit this vulnerability. \r\n\r\nThe specific flaw exists due to insufficiently filtered user-supplied data\r\nused in a call to exec() in multiple script pages. The affected scripts are\r\nlocated in '/spywall/ipchange.php' and 'network.php'. There is also a flaw\r\nin '/spywall/download_file.php' that allows unauthenticated users to\r\ndownload and delete any file on the server. \r\n\r\n- -- Vendor Response:\r\n\r\nSymantec has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More details\r\ncan be found at:\r\n\r\nhttp://www.symantec.com/security_response/securityupdates/detail.jsp?fid=se\r\ncurity_advisory&pvid=security_advisory&year=2012&suid=20120517_00\r\n\r\n- -- Disclosure Timeline:\r\n\r\n2011-11-22 - Vulnerability reported to vendor\r\n2012-06-08 - Coordinated public release of advisory\r\n\r\n- -- Credit:\r\n\r\nThis vulnerability was discovered by:\r\n\r\n* Tenable Network Security\r\n\r\n- -- About the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI):\r\n\r\nEstablished by TippingPoint, The Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) represents \r\na best-of-breed model for rewarding security researchers for responsibly\r\ndisclosing discovered vulnerabilities.\r\n\r\nResearchers interested in getting paid for their security research\r\nthrough the ZDI can find more information and sign-up at:\r\n\r\n http://www.zerodayinitiative.com\r\n\r\nThe ZDI is unique in how the acquired vulnerability information is\r\nused.

The management interface does not properly authenticate or filter external input. This could allow unauthorized access to user's session or network information. As a result of weak authentication and sanitization of user controlled input, arbitrary code could potentially be injected/included in application scripts used by the Symantec Web Gateway application potentially resulting in arbitrary command execution with application privileges. \n\nAdditionally, file management scripts in the Symantec Web Gateway interface do not properly filter user input, potentially resulting in an unauthenticated, unprivileged user downloading and deleting arbitrary files including essential operational files. This could render the targeted system unavailable or unusable depending on the success of such an attempt and files targeted. An unauthenticated, unprivileged user could also upload arbitrary code through the abuse of management scripts. A malicious user could be able to control the file name and location which could potentially result in arbitrary command execution with elevated privileges.\n\nCross-site scripting vulnerabilities were also reported in the Symantec Web Gateway Management Interface. Cross-site scripting is a trust exploitation generally requiring enticing a authenticated user to click on a malicious link. A successful exploitation, depending on the nature of the link, could potentially result in arbitrary java/html requests and scripts executed in the context of the targeted user.\n\nIn a normal installation, the Symantec Web Gateway management interface should not be accessible external to the network. However, an authorized but unprivileged network user or an external attacker able to leverage network access could attempt to exploit these weaknesses. \n\n \n\n**Symantec Response**\n\nSymantec engineers verified these issues and have released an update to address them. Symantec engineers reviewed related functionality to further enhance the overall security of Symantec Web Gateway. Symantec has released Symantec Web Gateway 5.0.3, currently available to customers through normal update channels.\n\nSymantec is not aware of any exploitation of, or adverse customer impact from these issues.\n\n \n**Best Practices**\n\nAs part of normal best practices, Symantec strongly recommends:\n\n * Restrict access to administration or management systems to privileged users.\n * Disable remote access or restrict it to trusted/authorized systems only.\n * Keep all operating systems and applications updated with the latest vendor patches.\n * Follow a multi-layered approach to security. Run both firewall and anti-malware applications, at a minimum, to provide multiple points of detection and protection to both inbound and outbound threats.\n * Deploy network and host-based intrusion detection systems to monitor network traffic for signs of anomalous or suspicious activity. This may aid in detection of attacks or malicious activity related to exploitation of latent vulnerabilities\n\n### ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS\n\n \n\nSymantec credits Tenable Network Security working through TippingPoint's [ZeroDay Initiative](<http://www.zerodayinitiative.com/>) for reporting file include, command injection/execution and file download/deletion and upload/execution issues.\n\n \n\nSymantec credits an anonymous contributor working with Beyond Security's SecuriTeam Secure Disclosure project ([http://www.beyondsecurity.com/ssd.html](<http://www.beyondsecurity.com/ssd.html>) for reporting file include, command injection/execution; file download/deletion and upload/execution issues.\n\n \n\nSymantec credits Ajay Pal Singh Atwal and an anonymous finder for reporting the cross-site scripting issues.\n\n### REFERENCES\n\n \n\n**BID:** Security Focus, [http://www.securityfocus.com](<http://www.securityfocus.com/>), has assigned the following Bugtraq IDs (BID) to these issues for inclusion in the Security Focus vulnerability database.\n\n**CVE:** These issues are candidates for inclusion in the CVE list ([http://cve.mitre.org](<http://cve.mitre.org/>)), which standardizes names for security problems.
