Vendor description:
-------------------
"With BIRT you can create data visualizations, dashboards and reports
that can be embedded into web applications and rich clients. Make information out
of your data!"
https://eclipse.github.io/birt-website/
Business recommendation:
------------------------
The vendor provides a patch which should be installed immediately.
Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
1) Remote code execution - CVE-2021-34427 bypass
The vulnerability described in CVE-2021-34427 (https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2021-34427/)
allows an attacker to execute code on the server, by creating a `.jsp` file
with the `BiRT - WebViewerExample`. This was fixed with the following code:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// viewer/org.eclipse.birt.report.viewer/birt/WEB-INF/classes/org/eclipse/birt/report/context/ViewerAttributeBean.java#L1081
protected static void checkExtensionAllowedForRPTDocument(String rptDocumentName) throws ViewerException {
int extIndex = rptDocumentName.lastIndexOf(".");
String extension = null;
boolean validExtension = true;
if (extIndex > -1 && (extIndex + 1) < rptDocumentName.length()) {
extension = rptDocumentName.substring(extIndex + 1);
if (!disallowedExtensionsForRptDocument.isEmpty()
&& disallowedExtensionsForRptDocument.contains(extension)) {
validExtension = false;
}
if (!allowedExtensionsForRptDocument.isEmpty() && !allowedExtensionsForRptDocument.contains(extension)) {
validExtension = false;
}
if (!validExtension) {
throw new ViewerException(BirtResources.getMessage(
ResourceConstants.ERROR_INVALID_EXTENSION_FOR_DOCUMENT_PARAMETER, new String[] { extension }));
}
}
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This fix can be easily bypassed by adding `/.` to the filename which allows
an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Proof of concept:
-----------------
1) Remote code execution - CVE-2021-34427 bypass
The old exploit results in an error message:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

</span>
Invalid extension - "jsp" for the __document parameter.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But adding `/.` to the end of the filename creates the file on the server as
before:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This allows the execution of the provided `JSP` code, by calling
`/birt/test/info-new.jsp`.
