Vulnerabilities

IPFire 2.21 Core Update 127 contains multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in the ovpnmain.cgi script that allow attackers to inject malicious scripts through VPN configuration parameters. Attackers can submit POST requests with script payloads in parameters like VPN_IP, DMTU, ccdname, ccdsubnet, DOVPN_SUBNET, DHCP_DOMAIN, DHCP_DNS, DHCP_WINS, ROUTES_PUSH, FRAGMENT, KEEPALIVE_1, and KEEPALIVE_2 to execute arbitrary JavaScript in administrator browsers.

IPFire versions prior to 2.29 (Core Update 198) contain a command injection vulnerability that allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands as the user 'nobody' via multiple parameters when creating a Proxy report. When a user creates a Proxy report the application issues an HTTP POST to /cgi-bin/logs.cgi/calamaris.dat and reads the values of DAY_BEGIN, MONTH_BEGIN, YEAR_BEGIN, DAY_END, MONTH_END, YEAR_END, NUM_DOMAINS, PERF_INTERVAL, NUM_CONTENT, HIST_LEVEL, NUM_HOSTS, NUM_URLS, and BYTE_UNIT, which are interpolated directly into the shell invocation of the mkreport helper. Because these parameters are never sanitized for improper characters or constructs, a crafted POST can inject shell metacharacters into one or more fields, causing arbitrary commands to run with the privileges of the 'nobody' user.

The Calamaris log exporter CGI (/cgi-bin/logs.cgi/calamaris.dat) in IPFire 2.29 does not properly sanitize user-supplied input before incorporating parameter values into a shell command. An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject arbitrary OS commands by embedding shell metacharacters in any of the following parameters BYTE_UNIT, DAY_BEGIN, DAY_END, HIST_LEVEL, MONTH_BEGIN, MONTH_END, NUM_CONTENT, NUM_DOMAINS, NUM_HOSTS, NUM_URLS, PERF_INTERVAL, YEAR_BEGIN, YEAR_END.

Multiple stored cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in the web user interface of IPFire versions prior to 2.27 allows a remote authenticated attacker with administrative privilege to inject an arbitrary script.

An authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scriptiong (XSS) vulnerability exists in Lightning Wire Labs IPFire 2.21 (x86_64) - Core Update 130 in the "routing.cgi" Routing Table Entries via the "Remark" text box or "remark" parameter. It allows an authenticated WebGUI user to execute Stored Cross-site Scripting in the Routing Table Entries.

Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilty in IPFire 2.23 via the IPfire web UI in the mail.cgi.

An authenticated Stored XSS (Cross-site Scripting) exists in the "captive.cgi" Captive Portal via the "Title of Login Page" text box or "TITLE" parameter in IPFire 2.21 (x86_64) - Core Update 130. It allows an authenticated WebGUI user with privileges to execute Stored Cross-site Scripting in the Captive Portal page.

lfs/backup in IPFire 2.25-core155 does not ensure that /var/ipfire/backup/bin/backup.pl is owned by the root account. It might be owned by an unprivileged account, which could potentially be used to install a Trojan horse backup.pl script that is later executed by root. Similar problems with the ownership/permissions of other files may be present as well.

An authenticated command injection vulnerability exists in IPFire Firewall before 2.21 Core Update 124 in backup.cgi. This allows an authenticated user with privileges for the affected page to execute arbitrary commands.

IPFire 2.19 has a Remote Command Injection vulnerability in ids.cgi via the OINKCODE parameter, which is mishandled by a shell. This can be exploited directly by authenticated users, or through CSRF.
