Description: An input validation vulnerability was reported in the IBM Tivoli Directory Server. A remote user can conduct cross-site scripting attacks against administrators.
It is reported that the web administration interface (ldacgi.exe) does not validate user-supplied information to remove HTML code before displaying the user-supplied information. A remote user can create a specially crafted URL that, when loaded by a target administrator, will cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the target user's browser. The code will originate from the site running the administrative interface and will run in the security context of that site. As a result, the code will be able to access the target administrator's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site, access data recently submitted by the target administrator via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting as the target administrator.
A demonstration exploit URL is provided:
https://server/ldap/cgi-bin/ldacgi.exe?Action=
The vendor has reportedly been notified without response.
Impact: A remote user can access the target administrator's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site running the administrative interface software, access data recently submitted by the target administrator via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting as the target administrator.
Solution: No solution was available at the time of this entry.
