How the Exploit Works
The exploit works by exploiting the improper sanitization of parameters within the SelectZero Data Observability Platform’s login page. Attackers can inject arbitrary text or limited HTML into these parameters, which can then be displayed on the login page. This manipulation could potentially lead to fraudulent messages or misleading information being shown, which could trick users into performing actions that compromise the system or reveal sensitive data.
Conceptual Example Code
The following is a conceptual example of a malicious HTTP POST request that could exploit this vulnerability:
POST /login HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
username=normalUser&password=<b>Security%20Update:%20Please%20send%20your%20password%20to%20admin@example.com%20for%20verification</b>&remember_me=trueIn this example, the attacker injects HTML code into the “password” parameter that would appear as a security update message on the login page, potentially tricking users into sending their passwords via email.
Mitigation
To mitigate this vulnerability, users of the affected versions of the SelectZero Data Observability Platform should apply the vendor’s available patch as soon as possible. As a temporary mitigation, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can be used to detect and block attempts to exploit this vulnerability.
