Product & Service Introduction:
===============================
Burden is a full featured task management app written in PHP. The script provides an easy way \
to add, edit or delete tasks. Tasks are highlighted in different colours depending on their \
importance and whether or not they are overdue. Each task can also be marked as completed or \
incomplete. Full sorting and task searching is also included. Please note Burden uses the UK \
date format of DD/MM/YYYY.

Severity Level:

Medium
Technical Details & Description:
================================
A persistent input validation web vulnerability has been discovered in the Burden v2.1.1 task \
management application. The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own malicious \
script code to the vulnerable module or functions.
The input validation web vulnerability is located in the `task` and `detail` parameters of the \
`Add` module. Remote attackers are able to inject own malicious script code via `Add` POST \
method request to manipulate the index listing of the task. The web validation of the \
application list is not secure parsed and allows to execute the malicious script codes. The \
injection point are the details and task input fields and the execution point occurs in the \
task list on preview.
The security risk of the vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability \
scoring system) count of 3.3. Exploitation of the persistent validation vulnerability requires \
no user interaction and a low privilege web-application user account. Successful exploitation \
of the vulnerability results in session hijacking, persistent phishing attacks, persistent \
external redirects to malicious source and persistent manipulation of affected or connected \
application modules.

Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The persistent validation vulnerability can be exploited by local attackers with access to the \
task application with low user interaction. For security demonstration or to reproduce the \
vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue.
Inject:
http://burden.localhost:8000/burden/worker.php
Execute:
http://burden.localhost:8000/burden/index.php
Manual steps to reproduce the vulnerability ...
1. Open the task management application
2. Add a new task to the index
3. Inject a payload in the task name and details input fields and save by processing via POST
4. Refresh the index list and the payload executes within the item list context
5. Successful reproduce of the input validation vulnerability!

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by a secure parse of the task and details parameters in the \
add to create post method request. Disallow the usage of special chars and filter the input to \
prevent further injection attacks. Encode the output location to prevent the execution point \
of the issue to resolve the vulnerability.
Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the persistent input validation vulnerability in the tma web-application \
is estimated as medium. (CVSS 3.3)
