Title: Connectra NGX 'index.php' Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

Connectra NGX is a VPN appliance, with a web-based management interface.

The management application is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input to the 'dir' parameter of the 'index.php' script.

An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.

Connectra NGX R62 HFA_01, Hotfix 601, Builds 006 and 014 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

Affected Products:

  • Check Point Software Connectra NGX R62
  • Check Point Software Connectra NGX R62 HFA_01 Hotfix 601 Build
  • Check Point Software Connectra NGX R62 HFA_01 Hotfix 601 Build
