Discussion

Bacula-web 'report.php' Cross Site Scripting and SQL Injection Vulnerabilities

Bacula-web is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability and an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site, steal cookie-based authentication credentials, compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.

Bacula-web 5.0.3 and 1.38.9_1 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

Exploit / POC

Bacula-web 'report.php' Cross Site Scripting and SQL Injection Vulnerabilities

An attacker can exploit these issues through a browser. To exploit a cross-site scripting issue, the attacker must entice an unsuspecting victim to follow a malicious URI.

The following example URIs and exploit code are available:

http://www.example.com/bacula/report.php?default=1&server=Backup_inc<script>alert("xss")</script>
http://www.example.com/bacula/report.php?default=1&server=Backup_inc' and 1='2 #FALSE
http:/www.example.com/bacula/report.php?default=1&server=Backup_inc' and 1='1 #TRUE
