Impact

An attacker with access to the Askiaweb survey application web interface can conduct a cross-site scripting or SQL injection attack, which could be used to result in information leakage, privilege escalation, and/or denial of service.

---

Solution

We are currently unaware of a practical solution to this problem.

---

Restrict access

As a general good security practice, only allow connections from trusted hosts and networks. Note that restricting access does not prevent XSS, CSRF, or SQLi attacks since the attack comes as an HTTP request from a legitimate user’s host. Restricting access would prevent an attacker from accessing the Askiaweb survey application web interface using stolen credentials from a blocked network location.
