Exploitation Technique:
=======================
Remote


Severity Level:
===============
Medium


Technical Details & Description:
================================
An application-side cross site scripting web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Ubiquiti Networks airCRM 
online service web-application.
The security vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own script code to the application-side of the affected 
application module.

The vulnerabilites are located in the input Name fields in the Billing Section. Remote attackers with low privilege 
web-application user accounts are 
able to inject own malicious script code via POST method request. The vulnerability is located to the application-side 
of the vulnerable service.

The security risk of the application-side cross site vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common 
vulnerability scoring system) count of 3.8. 
Exploitation of the persistent input validation web vulnerability requires a low privileged web-application user 
account and low or medium user interaction. 
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, persistent phishing attacks, persistent 
external redirects to malicious source 
and persistent manipulation of affected or connected application modules.

Request Method(s):
                                                [+] POST

Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The security vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers with low privileged web-application user account and 
low or medium user interaction.
For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to 
continue.

Manual steps to reproduce the vulnerability ...
1. Go to the subscriber module
2. Create with name as xss payload  
Note: <--`<img/src=` onerror=alert(document.cookie)> --!>
3. Click at bottom on invoice button
4. Now, the payload directly executes and can be shared
5. Successful reproduce of the vulnerability!

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by a secure parse and encode of the vulnerable input fields. Restrict the input and 
disallow usage of special chars.
Filter and setup a secure exception handling that prevents the persistent execution in the output location.


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of application-side input validation web vulnerability in the frontend of the airCRM web-application 
is estimated as medium. (CVSS 3.8)
