VUL-0: CVE-2015-8936: squidGuard: reflected cross site scripting vulnerability
Last modified: 2020-06-29 06:25:29 UTC
From http://www.squidguard.org/ Available patches for version 1.4: [...] Patch-20150201: Fixes a XSS vulnerability in the blocking script squidGuard.cgi See the Readme file for details about applying the patch. http://www.squidguard.org/Downloads/CHANGELOG 2015-02-01 Fixed a cross site vulnerability in squidGuard.cgi From the README in the archive: ############################################################################### # # # Patch 20150201 for squidGuard version 1.3 and 1.4 # # # ############################################################################### Introduction: ============= This patch fixes a reflected cross site scripting vulnerability in the blocking script squidGuard.cgi. The vulnerability is triggered when a user clicks a link to a blocked site where the url has scripting instructions added. Mitigation: =========== The problem only occurs if the %u paramter is used when calling squidGuard.cgi. Users with static block pages or those who do not use this parameter will not face this problem. === From glancing at the diff, the relevant change seems to include at lease: > +$url =~ s/</</g ; > +$url =~ s/>/>/g ; > + > status("403 Forbidden"); I do not see this issue referenced or applied in our packages. Also no CVE assignment apparent.
Correct, this patch is missing from SUSE, allowing block info-page to contain unescaped URLs.
