Report-Timeline: ================ 2012-11-18: Researcher Notification & Coordination 2012-11-20: Vendor Notification 2012-11-21: Vendor Response/Feedback 2012-12-17: Vendor Fix/Patch (v7.4.2) 2012-12-21: Public Disclosure Status: ======== Published Affected Products: ================== DELL Product: SonicWall - Email Security v7.4.1.7429 Exploitation-Technique: ======================= Remote Severity: ========= Medium Details: ======== A persistent input validation vulnerability is detected in the official Dell SonicWall Email Security (7.4.1.7429) Application. The vulnerability typus allows an attacker to inject own malicious script code in the vulnerable module on application side (persistent). The vulnerability is located in the Host Konfiguration > Einstellungen für CIFS-Bereitstellung > section when processing to request via the `Bereistellunge testen` module the bound vulnerable [Name des freigegebenen Laufwerks] [Benutzer-ID für Remoteanmeldung] [Kennwort für Remoteanmeldung] application parameters. The persistent injected script code will be executed directly out of the `system command failed` web application exception-handling. The vulnerability can be exploited with a low (restricted) privileged application user account and low or medium required user interaction. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability result in persistent session hijacking, persistent phishing, external redirect, external malware loads and persistent vulnerable module context manipulation.

Restrict the input fields (parameters) and disallow special chars and obviously forbidden strings. 2012-12-17: Vendor Fix/Patch (v7.4.2) Note: The vulnerability has been addressed by sonicwall in december 2012. Sonicwall provids all the customers an upgrade/update to version 7.4.2. Risk: ===== The security risk of the persistent web vulnerabilities are estimated as medium(+).
