TITLE:
Numara FootPrints Script Insertion and Command Execution

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA28659

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/28659/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Numara FootPrints 8.x
http://secunia.com/product/17261/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in Numara FootPrints, which
can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion
attacks and by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "Title" form field parameter when creating an
appointment is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be
exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which is then
executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site
when the malicious data is viewed.

Successful exploitation requires valid user credentials.

2) Input passed to the "PROJECTNUM" parameter in
MRcgi/MRProcessIncomingForms.pl is not properly sanitised before
being used in a call to "system()". This can be exploited to inject
and execute arbitrary commands using e.g. the "|" character.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 8.1 on Linux. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict network access and grant only trusted users access to the
application.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
1) An anonymous person
2) Ricky Zhou
