Stored cross-site scripting in Dolibarr ERP & CRM
#################################################


Overview
########

Advisory ID: TRSA-2105-02
Advisory version: 1.0
Advisory status: Public
Advisory URL: https://trovent.io/security-advisory-2105-02
Affected product: Dolibarr ERP & CRM
Tested versions: Dolibarr 13.0.2
Vendor: Dolibarr foundation, https://www.dolibarr.org

Detailed description
####################

Trovent Security GmbH discovered that the Dolibarr application does not escape
"greater than" and "smaller than" characters if they are reflected in one of the
small pop-up windows with details of the object.
This allows an attacker to add certain custom HTML tags and attributes.
In our PoC we used a "body" tag in conjunction with an "onpointermove" attribute
to achieve constant execution of the inserted JavaScript code.

Severity: Critical
CVSS Score: 9.0 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CWE ID: CWE-79
CVE ID: CVE-2021-33618

<body id="mainbody" class="sidebar-collapse" <="" onpointermove="alert(1)" style="margin-bottom: 26px;">

<!-- Start top horizontal -->
<div class="side-nav-vert"><div id="id-top"><div id="tmenu_tooltip" class="tmenu">
[...]


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Solution / Workaround
#####################

To mitigate this vulnerability, we recommend to always escape the user input
regardless of where it is reflected. Additionally we recommend to blacklist all
HTML tags and attributes.
