Vulnerability Summary

The Hyland OnBase server is vulnerable to path traversal allowing attackers to read and write to arbitrary files on the server.

Technical Details

The Hyland OnBase server fails to properly sanitize and escape user input allowing path traversal on the OnBase server. Multiple methods were found that directly concatinate user input into local file system calls without validation. Two separate types exist, read-only and write or append-only, allowing remote attackers who send SOAP calls directly to vulnerable methods using vulnerable parameters (typically “FileName”).

Seven read-only instances and twelve write or append-only instances were found allowing the attacker to read configuration data and arbitrary files across the server and append, create, and write to arbitrary files on the server, including uploading malicious DLLs and backdoors.

Solution

Unfortunately, attempts to notify Hyland of the vulnerabilities have been rebuffed as not being something that they have to fix since fixing vulnerabilities, according to the Director of Application Security, is “creating custom code” and no known fix is in place. Run the Hyland OnBase server in a restricted environment under a service account that can only access those files required to operate. Restrict the ability of the service account to write to files to the greatest extent possible.
