DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in HomeSeer HS2, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site request
forgery and script insertion attacks.
1) Input passed via the URL is not properly sanitised before being
used. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code,
which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an
affected site when the malicious data is being viewed.
2) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP
requests without performing any validity checks to verify the
requests. This can be exploited to e.g. execute commands on a system
by tricking a user into visiting a malicious web site.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.5.0.23. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Filter malicious characters and character sequences in a proxy. Do
not browse untrusted websites or follow untrusted links while logged
in to the application.
