TITLE

Imperva SecureSphere of Web Application Firewall and Database Firewall In intrusion-prevention Vulnerability that bypasses functionality

DESCRIPTION

Imperva SecureSphere Web Application Firewall and Database Firewall 5.0.0.5082 through 7.0.0.7078 allow remote attackers to bypass intrusion-prevention functionality via a request that has an appended long string containing an unspecified manipulation. An attacker can exploit this issue to bypass firewall restrictions. Successful exploits may lead to other attacks. The Imperva SecureSphere Database Firewall monitors and proactively protects databases from internal abuse, database attacks, and unauthorized activity. Protection provided by the Imperva device against attacks such as SQL injection and Cross-Site Scripting is negated, allowing unfiltered requests through to protected applications. SEVERITY RATING =============== Rating: High Risk - CVSS 7.8 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:C/A:N) Impact: Bypass security control Where: Remote THREAT EVALUATION ================= An attacker can use this flaw to bypass firewall protections. Only minimal skill is required and the bypass can be incorporated into existing exploitation frameworks and security testing tools. Exploitation of this issue does not permanently affect the device; each evasion request must contain the bypass payload. IDENTIFYING VULNERABLE INSTALLATIONS ==================================== Administrators can identify the current version in use by going to the Licensing menu in the administration console. Versions less than those identified in the Solutions section below are vulnerable. DETECTING EXPLOITATION ====================== The Imperva device provides no indication when this vulnerability is exploited. If other controls are in place such as network traffic monitors, IDS/IPS, or web filters, these should be configured to alert on payloads containing attack patterns. This includes all versions of SecureSphere from 5.0 through 7.0. SOLUTION ======== The vendor has released patches for affected versions to address this issue. Customers are strongly encouraged to apply the update as soon as possible. Refer to http://www.imperva.com/resources/adc/adc_advisories_response_clearskies.html for upgrade instructions.
