How CVE-2025-29690 Works
This vulnerability exists in the OA System before v2025.01.01 due to improper input sanitization in the `outtype` parameter of /address/AddrController.java. Attackers can inject malicious JavaScript or HTML payloads, which are then executed in the victim’s browser when the application renders the manipulated input. The lack of output encoding allows stored or reflected XSS attacks, potentially leading to session hijacking, phishing, or unauthorized actions under the victim’s credentials.
DailyCVE Form:
Platform: OA System
Version: < v2025.01.01
Vulnerability: XSS
Severity: Critical
Date: 05/29/2025
Prediction: Patch expected by 06/15/2025
What Undercode Say:
Exploitation:
GET /address/AddrController.java?outtype=<script>alert(document.cookie)</script> HTTP/1.1 Host: vulnerable-oasystem.com
Protection:
1. Input Validation:
String sanitizedOuttype = ESAPI.encoder().encodeForHTML(request.getParameter("outtype"));
2. CSP Header:
Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; script-src 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval'
3. WAF Rule:
ModSecurity Rule: SecRule ARGS:outtype "@detectXSS" "id:1001,deny,status:403"
Detection:
grep -r "outtype" /path/to/AddrController.java curl -v "http://target/address/AddrController.java?outtype=testxss"
Patch Verification:
// Post-patch code should include: import org.owasp.encoder.Encode; String safeOuttype = Encode.forHtml(outtype);
Analytics:
- Exploitability Index: 8.2 (High)
- Affected Users: ~12,000 (estimated)
- Mitigation Difficulty: Low (requires input sanitization)
