1) Introduction
Apache is the most common unix server in the world. It is strong and safe. Oracle HTTP Server is a modified, custom apache server that was created by apache for oracle.
The Vulnerabillity is Cross Site Scripting. If an attacker will request
the
following
url from the server:
http://<host>/isqlplus?action=logon&username=sdfds%22%3e%3cscript%3ealert('X
SS')%3c/script%3e\&password=dsfsd%3cscript%3ealert('XSS')%3c/script%3e
Or
http://<host>/isqlplus?action=<script>alert('XSS')</script>
XSS appears and the server allows an attacker to inject & execute scripts.
In the words of securityfocus.com :
If all of these circumstances are met, an attacker may be able to exploit
this issue
via a malicious link containing arbitrary HTML and script code as part of
the hostname.
When the malicious link is clicked by an unsuspecting user, the
attacker-supplied HTML
and script code will be executed by their web client. This will occur
because the server
will echo back the malicious hostname supplied in the client's request,
without sufficiently
escaping HTML and script code.
Attacks of this nature may make it possible for attackers to manipulate
web
content or to
steal cookie-based authentication credentials. It may be possible to take
arbitrary actions as the victim user.
http://<host>/isqlplus?action=logon&username=sdfds%22%3e%3cscript%3ealert('X SS')%3c/script%3e\&password=dsfsd%3cscript%3ealert('XSS')%3c/script%3e http://<host>/isqlplus?action=<script>alert('XSS')</script>
