Description

IPFire versions prior to 2.29 (Core Update 198) contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that allows an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript code through the PROT parameter when creating a new service. When a user adds a service, the application issues an HTTP POST request with the ACTION parameter set to saveservice, and the protocol type is specified in the PROT parameter. The value of this parameter is stored and later rendered in the web interface without proper sanitization or encoding, allowing injected scripts to execute in the context of other users viewing the affected service entry.

Attack-Flow Graph

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) issue in IPFire versions prior to 2.29 (Core Update 198). An authenticated attacker can inject arbitrary JavaScript code through the PROT parameter when creating a new service. The injected script is stored and later executed in the web interface when other users view the affected service entry, because the application does not properly sanitize or encode the PROT parameter value.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of other users viewing the affected service entry. This can lead to session hijacking, unauthorized actions performed on behalf of users, or exposure of sensitive information within the web interface.
