==Background== >From Celoxis.com: > Celoxis is a comprehensive web based project management > tool to improve collaboration and streamline management > of projects, time sheets, expenses and even business > processes specific to your organization ==Problem== The Celoxis project management software contains several pages that accept parameters in their URLs and display the contents of those parameters as page content. Many of these parameters may contain HTML tags, including the <script> tag, and in most cases their content is not sanitized in any way. These parameters are used internally by the software to display messages to the end user. Most of these pages are only accessible with a paid or trial subscription. ==Proof of Concept== The following POC may be accessed without a subscription: http://asp1.celoxis.com/psa/user.do?bxn=umyhome&ni.smessage=XSS+goes +here+%3cscript%3ealert('XSS')%3c/script%3e ==Potential Impact== This vulnerability can be used to manipulate arbitrary objects within the application without user authorization. Objects include projects, tasks, users, etc. It appears to be possible to exploit this vulnerability to cause users to delete their own projects. ==Timeline== 2008-09-18: Initial vendor notification 2008-09-18: Initial vendor response; vendor disputed threat 2008-09-18: Vendor contacted 2008-09-23: Vendor contacted; given one week notice 2008-09-30: Public disclosure -- Let the sun shine in!
