Technical Details & Description:
================================
Several non-persistent cross site scripting scripting security
vulnerabilities have been discovered in the official career site of
the German Bundeswehr. The vulnerability type allows attackers to
manipulate client-side controlled application calls.

The cross site scripting vulnerabilities are located in the
'termination', 'interests', 'careers' and 'search' parameters of
the 'career' module in the 'search' function. The GET method request is
not cleanly cleaned up when retrieving with the vulnerable
parameters. There is no validation where the request is intercepted,
cleaned or filtered. As a result,
attackers can submit their own malicious input to the https request to
the official Bundeswehr career website. In the
search, all parameters from the new page are listed and thus finally
executed via the request. In the case of a
successful attack, an attacker could, for example, steal session
information such as cookies, generate phishing pages,
identify persons with external calls, integrate client-side exploits
(drive-by) or redirect to harmful web server pages.
Since the web server should recognize all external sources or integrated
calls, there may be a problem with the
security of the SSL certificate via the Same Origin Policy.

The security risk of cross site scripting vulnerabilities in the search
function of the web application are considered medium.
To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker does not need a web
application user account, but does require light user
interaction by visiting a link. Exploitation of the vulnerability
results in the theft of cookie information, calling harmful
external sources in the Bundeswehr web context or spear phishing attacks.

Request Method(s):
[+] GET

Vulnerable Service(s):
[+] Bundeswehr Karriere (Web-Applikation) www.bundeswehrkarriere.de

[+] Suche


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The vulnerabilities can be exploited by attackers without a privileged
user account but with light user interaction.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The security gap can be quickly resolved by the following work-around ...
1. Input fields must prevent the input of special characters (Disallow
Specialchars)
2. Parse or filter the content of the parameters via GET to prevent input
3. Use the escape function for the output at the end of the function
4. Check why the SSL certificate does not expire on external calls


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of client-side cross site scripting web vulnerability
in the Bundeswehr career application is to be rated as medium.
