TITLE:
Cisco IOS HTTP Server Two Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA33461

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/33461/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
>From remote

OPERATING SYSTEM:
Cisco IOS 12.x
http://secunia.com/advisories/product/182/
Cisco IOS R12.x
http://secunia.com/advisories/product/50/

DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Cisco IOS, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

1) Input passed as a parameter to the "ping" command within the Cisco
IOS HTTP server is not properly sanitised before being returned to the
user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code
in a user's browser session in the context of an affected site.

2) Input passed to an unspecified parameter within the Cisco IOS HTTP
server is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user.
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a
user's browser session in the context of an affected site.

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities requires that the
HTTP server or secure server is enabled.

These vulnerabilities are reported in certain 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, 12.3,
and 12.4-based IOS releases.

SOLUTION:
Update to a fixed version (please see the vendor's advisory for
details).
