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

Overview:

With the Page2Flip Web application, it is possible to create e-papers in
PDF format that can be flicked through digitally. Such e-papers can be
used for magazines, catalogues, flyers, etc. (see [1]).

The Page2Flip application is vulnerable to HTML injection attacks. This 
allows users to send e-mails with almost any content to another user in 
the name of the Page2Flip team.

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

Vulnerability Details:

The SySS GmbH identified a vulnerability in the "create user" 
functionality of the Page2Flip application.

At least the parameters "first name" and "last name" are not sanitized
sufficiently resulting in the possibility to inject arbitrary HTML code
that changes the content of the "your registration" e-mail. This HTML
e-mail is sent to the given e-mail address of a newly created user
account.

The described cross-site scripting vulnerability can be exploited in the
context of an authenticated administrative user and allows an attacker
to send an e-mail with almost any content in the name of the Page2Flip
team to the victim.

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

Proof of Concept (PoC):

The following HTTP POST request using the HTML code 
"<div+style="display:none;">" as the value for the parameter "nachname"
demonstrates that HTML code can be injected:

POST /settings/users HTTP/1.1
Host: [host]
Faces-Request: partial/ajax
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 1198

 &javax.faces.partial.ajax=true


The HTML e-mail source code of the resulting e-mail of the PoC contains
the following HTML code

Hello <div style="display:none;"> xxx <br> 

rendering all subsequent automatically added content invisible.
