(Copy of the Vendor Homepage: http://netlife.no/ ) Abstract Advisory Information: ============================== The Vulnerability Laboratory Core Research Team discovered a client-side cross site scripting web vulnerability in official Netlife Photosuite Pro, manufactured by Netlife AS. Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline: ================================== 2016-01-29: Public Disclosure (Vulnerability Laboratory) Discovery Status: ================= Published Affected Product(s): ==================== Netlife Product: Photosuite Pro - Content Management System 2016 Q1 Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: =============== Medium Technical Details & Description: ================================ A GET cross site scripting web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Netlife Photosuite Pro Content Management System. A vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject malicious script codes on the client-side of the affected web-application. The vulnerability is located in the `message` value of the `sections/prophoto/key.php` file. Remote attackers are able to inject own malicious script codes to the client-side of the affected web-application. The request method to inject is GET and the attack vector is client-side. The attacker inject the payload in the message value to execute the code in key.php. The security risk of the client-side web vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 3.3. Exploitation of the non-persistent cross site scripting web vulnerability requires no web-application user account and no user interaction. Successful exploitation results in session hijacking, persistent phishings attacks, persistent external redirect and malware loads or persistent manipulation of affected or connected module context. Request Method(s): [+] GET Vulnerable Module(s): [+] sections/prophoto/ Vulnerable File(s): [+] key.php Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+] message Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The cross site scripting web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without a web-application user account or user interaction. For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue.
