-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The InfoGuard Group Vulnerability Summary 2006-04 Application: Maximus' iCue and iParent (http://www.schoolmax.net) Versions: All Bugs: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Date: 18 June 2006 Author: Charles H. E-mail: charles@infoguardgroup.com Website: http://www.infoguardgroup.com 1) Introduction SchoolMAX from MAXIMUS is one of the most technologically advanced student information systems available today. It is district-based yet still provides for school-based management capabilities and controls. http://www.maximus.com/corporate/pages/SchoolMAX.asp 2)Login XSS The login.asp file assocaited with SchoolMAX's iCue and iParent applications suffers from a Cross-Site Scripting flaw. This can result in cookie and/or credentials theft, especially if used in conjunction with a social engineering attack. A simple attack against iCue might look like this:: https://icue.victimsite.us/toas/icue_login.asp?error_msg=These%20aren't%20the%20droids%20you're%20looking%20for This will result in the message "These aren't the droids you're looking for" being displayed. This shows the basic idea of the XSS. You can perform various obfuscation techniques to hide the message. Additionally, when used in conjunction with social engineering,user credentials can be easily obtained.: If we take a php file like this: Post it to some place, then send a forged e-mail which redirects to this, we can capture the credentials. When we do, here's what the attacker gets in the e-mail: Subject: FormToEmail Comments Date: Mon, 06 Mar 2006 21:48:05 -0900 (AKST) From: Nobody To: Badguy@evil.net DST_NBR: 1111 USER_NME: 4564654 OPER_PASS: 123456 login: Log in 4)Patch Status Maximus has been contacted multiple times since this issue was discovered in March.
