.: [ INTRO ] :.
The Cisco Security Management Appliance helps to enable flexible management and comprehensive security control
at the network gateway. Is a central platform for managing all policy, reporting, and auditing information
for Cisco web and email security appliances.
.: [ TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION ] :.
Cisco IronPort Security Management Appliance M170 v7.9.1-030 (and probably other products), are prone to several security issues
as described below;
.: [ ISSUE #1 }:.
Name: Reflected Cross Site Scripting
Severity: Low
CVE: CVE-2013-3396
There is a lack of output escaping in the default error 500 page. When a exception occurs in the application, the error
description contains user unvalidated input from the request:
** PoC removed as requested by Cisco. **
.: [ ISSUE #2 }:.
Name: Stored Cross Site Scripting
Severity: Medium
Due to a lack of input validation on job_name, job_type, appliances_options and config_master parameters which are then
printed unscapped on job_name, old_job_name, job_type, appliance_lists and config_master fields.
** PoC removed as requested by Cisco. **
.: [ ISSUE #3 }:.
Name: CSRF Token is not used
Severity: Low
CVE: CVE-2013-3395
CSRFKey is not used in some areas of the application, which make even easier to exploit Reflected XSS Issues. In the /report area
of the application, we got no error even when completely removing the parameter CSRFKey;
** PoC removed as requested by Cisco. **
See: http://tools.cisco.com/security/center/viewAlert.x?alertId=29844
.: [ ISSUE #4 }:.
Name: Lack of password obfuscation
Severity: Low
When exporting the configuration file even if you mark the "mask password" option, the SNMPv3 password still appears in cleartext.
.: [ CHANGELOG ] :.

* 11/Jul/2013: - Public Disclosure
