DESCRIPTION:
Dmitry Chastuhin has reported multiple vulnerabilities in SAP Crystal
Reports Server 2008, which can be exploited by malicious users to
disclose potentially sensitive information and by malicious people to
conduct cross-site scripting attacks, manipulate certain data, and
compromise a user's system.

1) Input passed to the "actId" parameter in
InfoViewApp/jsp/common/actionNav.jsp, "backUrl" parameter in
InfoViewApp/jsp/common/error.jsp, and "logonAction" parameter in
InfoViewApp/logon.jsp 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 context of an affected
site.

2) An insecure "CreateTextFile()" method in an ActiveX control
(scriptinghelpers.dll) can be exploited to overwrite existing files.

3) An insecure "LaunchProgram()" method in an ActiveX control
(scriptinghelpers.dll) can be exploited to execute an arbitrary
program.

4) An insecure "DeleteFile()" method in an ActiveX control
(scriptinghelpers.dll) can be exploited to delete an arbitrary file.

5) An insecure "Kill()" method in an ActiveX control
(scriptinghelpers.dll) can be exploited to terminate a running
process.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires knowing a
valid process id.

6) Input passed to the "path" parameter in
PerformanceManagement/jsp/qa.jsp (when "func" is set to "browse" and
"root" is set to "wi") is not properly verified before being used to
read files. This can be exploited to display arbitrary files from
local resources via directory traversal attacks.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires valid
credentials.

SOLUTION:
Apply patches (please see the vendor's advisory for details).

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Dmitry Chastuhin, Digital Security Research Group (DSecRG).
