New Kayako Helpdesk XSS Vulnerability

Nov 18, 2008

This security flaw came to light at the end of October and I didn't find it posted already so thought it worth mentioning having tested the helpdesks for some sites that we use and found them to be at risk.
D

etails and a demo exploit URL can be found at url]

For anyone who doesn't know, XSS flaws that allow execution of arbitrary javascript can be exploited easily and without user knowledge to obtain information such as login details or session IDs. This could happen in various ways, including visiting an unrelated page with a simple URL that redirects to the vulnerable URL and then back again. Tools such as NoScript for FireFox may help protect against this on the client side.

Kayako

Mar 27, 2007

Since the entirety of Kayako's SQL services including their forum, helpdesk, etc, all now appear to have conveniently gone offline I thought I'd ask here for some help.

Has anyone had an error like this before with eSupport?

"PHP Fatal error: ERROR: Could not insert all templates. - in C:Inetpubwwwrootsetupstepssetup_step5.php on line 32"

Obviously it's encoded so I haven't got a clue what's happening on line 32. The rest of the install seems to have gone quite smoothly after some initial issues with PHP.

Kayako Support Wants My Root Password

Nov 13, 2007

I have recently leased Kayako support suite and I have not been able to get email piping to work. They have asked several times for the root password of my dedicated server and I have denied it. They now tell me they cannot help me if I do not provide them with the password. I find this very ridiculous since I know it is not safe to give that password. Is it advisable to give them the password and then change it after they get kayako working? What risks would I be going through?

/scripts Vulnerability Using WebShell.cgi

Jan 14, 2007

A user is able to use WebShell.cgi:
[url removed]

In order to run commands from the /scripts folder. This is especially dangerous as a user can give an account reseller priviledge with full root access.

Because webshell.cgi is running with the uid/gid of apache, it can access all files which can be access with apache. And guess what.... the /scripts folder is one of them.

Because it's a CGI script, it doesn't seem as though there is an easy way to block this.

Vulnerability Assessment Of Network Security?

May 13, 2008

I am building a website which require a data feed from a third party data provider. I have to fill out a 'questionair' when submitting my application and I'm not sure what to put for this questions.

Question: "Have you run a vulnerability assessment of network security? What is the current assessment rating?"

I Google'd for security rating but came up blank, without any useful result. Is there a level like 1-5 or something for network security rating? I m not sure what to put on here.

I'm not against getting a shared/virtual hosting account if the a host could provide me with these ratings.

CPanel Vulnerability Found - Upgrade Recommended

May 2, 2008

Just came through on the RSS feeds...

Quote:

Several potential security issues have been identified with cPanel software and Horde, a 3rd party bundled application. cPanel releases prior to 11.18.4 and 11.22.2 are susceptible to security issues, which range in severity from trivial to medium-critical. Along with the discovery of these potential issues, cPanel has released a new security tool to provide users with protection from XSRF attacks.

Quote:

All STABLE and RELEASE users are strongly urged to update to their respective 11.18.5 release. CURRENT and EDGE users should update to the latest 11.22.3 release. No releases are deemed susceptible to severe, critical or root access vulnerabilities.

Attacking Multicore CPUs (new Vulnerability Discussion From Slashdot/The Register)

Sep 16, 2007

Attacking multicore CPUs
[url]
[url]

"The Register reports that the world of current multi-core central processing units (CPUs) just entered is facing a serious threat. A security researcher at Cambridge disclosed a new class of vulnerabilities that takes advantage of concurrency to bypass security protections such as anti-virus software The attack is based on the assumption that the software that interacts with the kernel can be used without interference. The researcher, Robert Watson, showed that a careful written exploit can attack in the little timeframe when this happens, and literally change the "words" that they are exchanging. Even if some of these dark aspects of concurrency were already known, Watson proved that real attacks can be developed, and showed that developers have to fix their code. Fast..."

Plesk 11.x / Linux :: Shell-shock Bash Vulnerability In Chrootsh

Oct 1, 2014

We have Plesk Panel 11.5 in Virtuozzo containers (Centos 6 x86_64) and we often provide to our customers the ssh access with chroot - /usr/local/ psa/ bin/chrootsh.All we know about Shellshock Vulnerability and we already installed all fixes to bash, but chrootsh-version is still vulnerable.Here are the results of BashCheck from [URL] ..... under chrooted user:

Vulnerable to CVE-2014-6271 (original shellshock)
Vulnerable to CVE-2014-7169 (taviso bug)
bashcheck: line 15: 19226 Segmentation fault bash -c "true $(printf '<<EOF %.0s' {1..79})" 2> /dev/null
Vulnerable to CVE-2014-7186 (redir_stack bug)

Test for CVE-2014-7187 not reliable without address sanitizer.Variable function parser still active, likely vulnerable to yet unknown parser bugs like CVE-2014-6277 (lcamtuf bug).Do you plan to release updates for chrootsh?

SIM Installer Symlink Attack + Race Condition Local Root Vulnerability

Apr 29, 2007

Code:

$ md5sum sim-current.tar.gz
6c1cece6f3af87598c4bdb09cabcb3cc sim-current.tar.gz

Line 25, file: sim-2.5-3/setup

Code:
TMPS="/tmp/sim_cj"
Line 399, file sim-2.5-3/install/sim

Code:
cat $TMPS >> /etc/crontab

If a local user creates a symlink to that file, then writes to the sim_cj file being linked to, as SIM is being installed, they can influence the contents of /etc/crontab.

Contacted the vendor via email on 04/17/07, email bounced.
Opened a ticket via their helpdesk ~5 days ago, no response.

Again, this is only an issue during the install, which is an extremely small window of time. Any bug that could lead to root access should be fixed, however.

CPanel Horde Vulnerability Found - Update Your CPanel

Mar 7, 2008

An arbitrary file inclusion vulnerability has been discovered in the Horde
webmail application. At present, we can confirm that this security
vulnerability in question affects Horde 3.1.6 and earlier. Based on
incomplete information at this time, we also believe this affects Horde
Groupware 1.0.4 and earlier as well (cPanel does not use Horde Groupware
at this time).

cPanel customers should update their cPanel and WHM servers immediately to
prevent any chance of compromise. The patch will be available in builds
11.18.2 and greater (or 11.19.2 and greater for EDGE systems). The updated
builds will be available immediately to all fast update servers. The
builds will be available to all other update servers within one hour of
this posting.

To check which version of cPanel and WHM is on your server, simply log
into WebHost Manager (WHM) and look in the top right corner, or execute
the following command from the command line as root:

/usr/local/cpanel/cpanel -V

You can upgrade your server by navigating to 'cPanel' -> 'Upgrade to
Latest Version' in WebHost Manager or by executing the following from the
command line as root:

/scripts/upcp

It is recommended that all use of Horde 3.1.6 and earlier be stopped (on
cPanel and non-cPanel systems alike) until Horde updates can be applied.
You can disable Horde on your cPanel system by unchecking the box next to
'Server Configuration' -> 'Tweak Settings' -> 'Mail' -> 'Horde Webmail'
within WHM, and saving the page with the new settings.
