Description Preview
A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in mojoPortal version 2.7.0.0. The vulnerability is present in the FileDialog.aspx component, where user input from the "ed" and "tbi" parameters is not properly sanitized before being reflected back to users. This allows attackers to inject and execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML in a victim's browser session, potentially leading to session hijacking, credential theft, or other client-side attacks.
Overview
This vulnerability (CVE-2023-24322) affects mojoPortal, an open-source content management system. The issue is classified as CWE-79 (Cross-site Scripting) and exists in the FileDialog.aspx component of mojoPortal version 2.7.0.0. When a user accesses a specially crafted URL containing malicious JavaScript code in either the "ed" or "tbi" parameters, the application reflects this input back to the user's browser without proper encoding or sanitization. This allows the injected code to execute in the context of the victim's browser session, potentially allowing attackers to steal cookies, session tokens, or perform actions on behalf of the victim.
Remediation
To address this vulnerability, administrators should:
- Update to the latest version of mojoPortal if a patched version is available
- Implement proper input validation and output encoding for the affected parameters
- Consider implementing Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to mitigate XSS attacks
- If updates are not immediately available, consider implementing a web application firewall (WAF) rule to filter potentially malicious requests targeting the vulnerable parameters
- Review the application's handling of user input across all components to identify similar vulnerabilities
