~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Overview:
Micro Focus Vibe is a web-based team collaboration platform that can
serve as a knowledge repository, document management system, project
collaboration hub, process automation machine, corporate intranet or
extranet [1].
The manufacturer describes the product as follows (see [2]):
"Micro Focus Vibe (formerly Novell Vibe) brings people, projects, and
processes together in one secure place to enhance team productivity --
no matter where the team is or what devices they use."
Due to insufficient server-side validation of user input, Vibe is
vulnerable to injection of malicious HTML markup into file titles.
(For a related vulnerability, see our advisory SYSS-2019-047 [3])
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vulnerability Details:
In Vibe, an uploaded file can be assigned a title that is different
from the filename. While HTML markup is not allowed in filenames, it is
partially accepted in file titles. This behavior poses a low to medium
security risk, because it can be exploited by an authenticated attacker
to inject malicious HTML markup into the title of a file uploaded by
the attacker. For instance, the attacker can submit an external link as
a file title, thus changing Vibe's expected behavior upon clicking on
the title -- the malicious external resource will be requested instead
of the internal page of the uploaded file. With a little social
engineering, authenticated victims can be tricked into submitting their
Vibe credentials to the attacker's server, by directing the victim's
browser to a fake Vibe login page and prompting the victim to log in
again, because of an alleged error.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Proof of Concept (PoC):
An authenticated attacker uploads a file with, e.g., the following
title:
</a><a href="https://evil.me/fakeVibeLogin.html">Meaningful Title
An authenticated victim sees the title "Meaningful Title" on the list of
latest uploads and clicks on it. The victim's browser is directed to the
fake Vibe login page with the URL https://evil.me/fakeVibeLogin.html.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Solution:
Upgrade Vibe to version 4.0.7.
