04. ### Vulnerability Description ###

SpagoBI contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute
arbitrary code. This flaw exists because the application does not
restrict uploading for specific file types from Worksheet designer
function.
This may allow a remote attacker to upload arbitrary files (e.g. .html
for XSS) that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser
within the trust relationship between their browser and the server or
more easily conduct more serious attacks.


05. ### Technical Description / Proof of Concept Code ###

An attacker (a SpagoBI malicious user with a restricted account) can
upload a file from Worksheet designer function.

To reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and
steps below:

- Using a browser log on to SpagoBI with restricted account (e.g.
Business User Account)
- Go on: Worksheet designer function
- Click on: Image and Choose image
- Upload malicious file and save it

XSS Malicious File Upload Attack has been successfully completed!

More details about SpagoBI Worksheet Engine and Worksheet designer
http://wiki.spagobi.org/xwiki/bin/view/spagobi_server/Worksheet#HWorksheetoverview

(e.g. Malicious File: xss.html)

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function myFunction()
{alert("XSS");}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" onclick="myFunction()" value="Show alert box">
</body>
</html>


06. ### Business Impact ###

Exploitation of the vulnerability requires low privileged application
user account but low or medium user interaction. Successful exploitation
of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, client-side phishing,
client-side external redirects or malware loads and client-side
manipulation of the vulnerable module context.


07. ### Systems Affected ###

This vulnerability was tested against: SpagoBI 4.0
Older versions are probably affected too, but they were not checked.


08. ### Vendor Information, Solutions and Workarounds ###

This issue is fixed in SpagoBI v4.1, which can be downloaded from:
http://forge.ow2.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=204

Fixed by vendor [verified]
