Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline: ================================== 2015-05-03: Vendor Notification (Yahoo Security Team - Bug Bounty Program) 2015-05-05: Vendor Response/Feedback (Yahoo Security Team - Bug Bounty Program) 2015-05-06: Vendor Fix/Patch (Yahoo Developer Team) 2015-05-06: Bug Bounty Reward (Yahoo Security Team - Bug Bounty Program) 2015-05-07: Public Disclosure (Vulnerability Laboratory) Discovery Status: ================= Published Affected Product(s): ==================== Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: =============== Medium Technical Details & Description: ================================ A non-persistent input validation web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Yahoo eMarketing online service web-application. The security vulnerability allows remote attackers to manipulate client-side application to browser requests to compromise user/admin session information. The vulnerability is located in the `id` value of the `eMarketing` module. Remote attackers are able to inject malicious script codes to client-side GET method application requests. Remote attackers are able to prepare special crafted web-links to execute client-side script code that compromises the yahoo user/admin session data. The execution of the script code occurs in same module context location by a mouse-over. The attack vector of the vulnerability is located on the client-side of the online service and the request method to inject or execute the code is GET. The security risk of the non-persistent cross site vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 3.5. Exploitation of the non-persistent cross site scripting web vulnerability requires no privileged web application user account and low user interaction. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, non-persistent phishing, non-persistent external redirects, non-persistent load of malicious script codes or non-persistent web module context manipulation. Request Method(s): [+] GET Vulnerable Module(s): [+] Yahoo > eMarketing Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+] id Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The client-side cross site scripting web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without privilege application user account and low user interaction (click).
