The Zero Day Initiative advisory ZDI-08-088 has several inaccuracies. Oracle actually fixed this vulnerability as part of the April 2007 Critical Patch Update and subsequently in ATG_PF.H RUP5 and later. The vulnerability is a serious SQL injection bug in a Self-Service Web Application database package that is called and accessible through mod_plsql. Mod_plsql is an Apache module and part of an Oracle web framework which allows database packages to dynamically generate web pages. The vulnerable schema.package.procedure name is APPS.ICXSUPWF.DISPLAYCONTACTS and all versions 115.6 and prior are vulnerable. When creating intrusion detection/prevention rules for this vulnerability, the URL will normally only include the package/procedure name ICXSUPWF.DISPLAYCONTACTS and mod_plsql URLs are case-insensitive. This URL is normally blocked by the Oracle E-Business Suite 11i URL Firewall and should not be externally accessible. Original Oracle Advisory: Oracle Critical Patch Update April 2007 - APPS01 CVE Name: CVE-2007-2126 Affected Product and Versions: Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.1 through 11.5.10.2 (CU2) Affected Oracle E-Business Suite Modules: Application Object Library (FND)/Self-Service Web Applications (ICX) Patch Availability: 11.5.1 - 11.5.6 - No patches are available for unsupported versions of the Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.7 - 11.5.10.2 with ATG_PF.H RUP4 or prior - 5893391 11.5.9 - 11.5.10.2 with ATG_PF.H RUP5 or higher - No patch required as this fix was included in RUP5 and higher Additional information on the Oracle Critical Patch Update April 2007 and the impact on the Oracle E-Business Suite 11i is available at - http://www.integrigy.com/Integrigy_Oracle_CPU_April_2007_Analysis.pdf Vulnerability "anthropologists" may be interested in the fact that this vulnerability has existed since at least September 1999 and likely was introduced several years earlier with the release of Oracle Applications 11.0. Oracle fixed this bug in less than 2 months by simply stubbing the procedure - clearly this was old code not used anymore by the application. I wonder how much first generation web application code exists in the world that is still accessible but automated scanning tools miss since it is not directly accessible through a link? -----Original Message----- From: full-disclosure-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:full-disclosure-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of zdi-disclosures@xxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, December 16, 2008 2:14 PM To: full-disclosure@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; bugtraq@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [Full-disclosure] ZDI-08-088: Oracle E-Business Suite Business Intelligence SQL Injection Vulnerability ZDI-08-088: Oracle E-Business Suite Business Intelligence SQL Injection Vulnerability http://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-08-088 December 16, 2008 -- Affected Vendors: Oracle -- Affected Products: Oracle Database Server -- TippingPoint(TM) IPS Customer Protection: TippingPoint IPS customers have been protected against this vulnerability by Digital Vaccine protection filter ID 4921. For further product information on the TippingPoint IPS, visit: http://www.tippingpoint.com -- Vulnerability Details: This vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL on vulnerable installations of Oracle E-Business Suite Business Intelligence. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists in the APPS.ICXSUPWF.DisplayContacts package. The procedure fails to validate the contents of a WHERE clause containing user-suppled input. This allows an attacker to execute arbitrary SQL statements in the context of the APPS user. -- Vendor Response: Oracle has issued an update to correct this vulnerability.
