PYSEC-2024-90

Vulnerability from pysec - Published: 2024-09-04 20:15 - Updated: 2024-09-25 06:23

Details

Indico is an event management system that uses Flask-Multipass, a multi-backend authentication system for Flask. In Indico prior to version 3.3.4, corresponding to Flask-Multipass prior to version 0.5.5, there is a Cross-Site-Scripting vulnerability during account creation when redirecting to the next URL. Exploitation requires initiating the account creation process with a maliciously crafted link, and then finalizing the signup process. Because of this, it can only target newly created (and thus unprivileged) Indico users. Indico 3.3.4 upgrades the dependency on Flask-Multipass to version 0.5.5, which fixes the issue. Those who build the Indico package themselves and cannot upgrade can update the flask-multipass dependency to >=0.5.5 which fixes the vulnerability. Otherwise one could configure one's web server to disallow requests containing a query string with a next parameter that starts with javascript:.

GHSA-RRQF-W74J-24FF

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-09-04 17:19 – Updated: 2024-09-25 17:55

Summary

Indico has a Cross-Site-Scripting during account creation

Details

Impact

There is a Cross-Site-Scripting vulnerability during account creation when redirecting after the account has been successfully created. Exploitation requires the user to initiate the account creation process with a maliciously crafted link, and then finalize the signup process. Because of this, it can only target newly created (and thus unprivileged) Indico users so the benefits of exploiting it are very limited.

Patches

You should to update to Indico 3.3.4 as soon as possible. See the docs for instructions on how to update.

Workarounds

If you build the Indico package yourself and cannot upgrade for some reason, you can simply update the flask-multipass dependency to >=0.5.5 which fixes the vulnerability. You would do that by editing requirements.txt before building the package (see commit 7dcb573837), or possibly cherry-picking that particular commit.
Otherwise you could configure your web server to disallow requests containing a query string with a parameter that starts with javascript:

  "details": "### Impact\nThere is a Cross-Site-Scripting vulnerability during account creation when redirecting after the account has been successfully created.\nExploitation requires the user to initiate the account creation process with a maliciously crafted link, and then finalize the signup process. Because of this, it can only target newly created (and thus unprivileged) Indico users so the benefits of exploiting it are very limited.\n\n### Patches\nYou should to update to [Indico 3.3.4](https://github.com/indico/indico/releases/tag/v3.3.4) as soon as possible.\nSee [the docs](https://docs.getindico.io/en/stable/installation/upgrade/) for instructions on how to update.\n\n### Workarounds\n- If you build the Indico package yourself and cannot upgrade for some reason, you can simply update the `flask-multipass` dependency to `\u003e=0.5.5` which fixes the vulnerability. You would do that by editing `requirements.txt` before building the package (see commit 7dcb573837), or possibly cherry-picking that particular commit.\n- Otherwise you could configure your web server to disallow requests containing a query string with a parameter that starts with `javascript:`\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n\n- Open a thread in [our forum](https://talk.getindico.io/)\n- Email us privately at [indico-team@cern.ch](mailto:indico-team@cern.ch)",

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
