Umbraco SSRF / Cross Site Request Forgery / Cross Site Scripting

`[image: Vulnerable Umbraco]  
<http://blog.securelayer7.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/download.png>  
  
Recently I got an assignment where I had to work on the Umbraco application  
- a free Open Source Content Management System built on the ASP.NET  
platform and is used by more than 2,25,000 websites. While performing the  
security testing of this application, I discovered serious vulnerabilities  
within this application, allowing to perform SSRF attack, CSRF Bypass  
attack, and persistent XSS. The CVE number yet to be assigned to these  
vulnerabilities. It would be strongly recommended to update the CMS to  
latest version.  
  
*SSRF Vulnerability*  
  
Let me get start with Server side request forgery (ssrf) attack found  
within the feedproxy.aspx. Those who new to SSRF, please follow this link.  
<https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/918.html>  
  
I started off playing with the feedproxy.aspx, it is intersting page in  
Umbraco . the feedproxy.aspx is used to access the external resources using  
the URL GET parameter.  
  
http://local/Umbraco/feedproxy.aspx?url=http://bobsite/index  
  
once you change the URL to the  
http://local/Umbraco/feedproxy.aspx?url=http://127.0.0.1:80/index, you able  
to access the localhost application of the server.  
  
Using this payload change the port number to perform port scanning of the  
server. It will be helpful to find the more details of the server.  
For example:  
  
http://local/Umbraco/feedproxy.aspx?url=http://127.0.0.1:25/index  
http://local/Umbraco/feedproxy.aspx?url=http://127.0.0.1:8080/index  
  
If the port number is closed, you will find the error message on the  
feedproxy.aspx page. Umbraco assigned bug ID U4-7457  
<http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-7457> and fixed the issue.  
  
*CSRF Bypass Vulnerability*  
  
The Umbraco assigned bug ID U4-7459  
<http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-7459>, It was discovered that Umbraco  
enabled sensitive actions, such as editing a user account information was  
vulnerable to CSRF vulnerability.  
The vulnerable code in templates.asmx.cs on the line number 75, it is  
executing save operation without verifying the actual CSRF token.  
In the file SetAngularAntiForgeryTokensAttributes.cs, on line number 25,  
function allowing empty CSRF value, the CSRF vulnerability is triggering.

*Persistent XSS Vulnerability*  
  
It is found that Umbraco is also vulnerable to Persistent XSS in content  
type editor. Umbraco has been assigned bug ID U4-7461.. This vulnerability  
existed in the name field of the media page, the developer data edit page,  
and the form page.[image: XSS Vulnerability in Umbraco]

To mitigate these vulnerabilities, it is recommended to update Umbraco to  
the version V7.4.0.
