cPanel TSR-2017-0005 Full Disclosure

SEC-276

Summary

SQL injection in eximstats processing.

Security Rating

cPanel has assigned this vulnerability a CVSSv3 score of 5.3 CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N

Description

When processing eximstats updates in buffered mode, errors in the SQL operations cause the updates to be reprocessed one statement at a time. The logic used to split multiple SQL statements back into individaul SQL statements was faulty. This resulted in data being processed as SQL commands.

Summary

Stored XSS Vulnerability in WHM MySQL Password Change Interfaces.

Security Rating

cPanel has assigned this vulnerability a CVSSv3 score of 4.6 CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N

Description

When changing the MySQL password for the root user, various scripts are called to update subsystems that rely on this password. One of these scripts updates the Roundcube databases and outputs a list of virtual email accounts. This list was not adequately encoded before displaying to the user and allowed an attacker to inject arbitrary code on the rendered page.

Security Rating

cPanel has assigned this vulnerability a CVSSv3 score of 2.2 CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
