Details:  
========  
1.1  
Multiple persistent Input Validation vulnerabilities are detected on Barracudas Control Center 620. Local low privileged user account can  
implement/inject malicious persistent script code. When exploited by an authenticated user, the identified vulnerabilities   
can lead to information disclosure, access to intranet available servers, manipulated persistent content.  
  
Vulnerable Module(s): (Persistent)  
[+] authdblookup -input  
  
1.2  
Multiple non-persistent Input Validation vulnerabilities are detected on Barracudas Control Center 620 appliance.  
Attackers can form malicious client-side requests to hijack customer/admin sessions.  
Successful exploitation requires user inter action & can lead to information disclosure, session   
hijacking and access to servers in the intranet.  
  
Vulnerable Module(s): (Non-Persistent)  
[+] editdevices  
[+] main

Proof of Concept:  
=================  
The vulnerabilities can be exploited by low privileged user accounts or remote attacker via high required user inter action.  
For demonstration or reproduce ...  
  
1.1 Persistent  
https://127.0.0.1:8080/bcc/[email protected]&selected-node=  
  
Manually reproduce ...  
1. Login  
2. Switch to the vulnerable authdblookup-input.jsp add mask  
3. Include your own malicious persistent script code (java-script or html) & save the input  
4. The stored script code will be executed in main-bar as stable output result (persistent)  
  
1.2 Non-Persistent  
https://127.0.0.1:8080/bcc/editdevices.jsp?device-type=spyware&selected-node=1&containerid=[IVE]  
https://127.0.0.1:8080/bcc/main.jsp?device-type=[IVE]  
  
  
Solution:  
=========  
Barracuda implemented after the issues 2011 a validation mask to filter malicious & disallowed inputs.  
The barracuda firmware of the filter has been update multiple times.  
  
  
Risk:  
=====  
1.1  
The security risk of the discovered persistent vulnerabilities are estimated as medium(+) because of low required user inter action.  
  
1.2  
The security risk of the discovered non-persistent vulnerabilities are estimated as low because of high required user inter action.
