osTicket <= 1.2.7 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 18193

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of osTicket installed on the remote host suffers from several vulnerabilities :

- A Remote File Include Vulnerability The script 'include/main.php' lets an attacker read arbitrary files on the remote host and possibly even run arbitrary PHP code, subject to the privileges of the web server user.

- Two SQL Injection Vulnerabilities An authenticated attacker can affect SQL queries through the 'id' parameter of the 'admin.php' script as well as the 'cat' parameter of the 'view.php' script.

- Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities osTicket does not properly sanitize user-supplied input in several scripts, which could facilitate the theft of cookie-based authentication credentials within the context of the affected website.

- A Directory Traversal Vulnerability The 'attachments.php' script may let an authenticated attacker read arbitrary files on the remote, subject to the privileges of the server user. This occurs only if attachment uploads have been specifically enabled by the administrator.

Solution

Upgrade to osTicket version 1.3.1 or later.
