CVE-2015-10012

** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** A vulnerability was found in sumocoders FrameworkUserBundle up to 1.3.x. It has been rated as problematic. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file Resources/views/Security/login.html.twig. The manipulation leads to information exposure through error message. Upgrading to version 1.4.0 is able to address this issue. The name of the patch is abe4993390ba9bd7821ab12678270556645f94c8. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-217268. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.

Weakness

The product generates an error message that includes sensitive information about its environment, users, or associated data.

Affected Software

Extended Description

The sensitive information may be valuable information on its own (such as a password), or it may be useful for launching other, more serious attacks. The error message may be created in different ways:

An attacker may use the contents of error messages to help launch another, more focused attack. For example, an attempt to exploit a path traversal weakness (CWE-22) might yield the full pathname of the installed application. In turn, this could be used to select the proper number of “..” sequences to navigate to the targeted file. An attack using SQL injection (CWE-89) might not initially succeed, but an error message could reveal the malformed query, which would expose query logic and possibly even passwords or other sensitive information used within the query.

Potential Mitigations

• Ensure that error messages only contain minimal details that are useful to the intended audience and no one else. The messages need to strike the balance between being too cryptic (which can confuse users) or being too detailed (which may reveal more than intended). The messages should not reveal the methods that were used to determine the error. Attackers can use detailed information to refine or optimize their original attack, thereby increasing their chances of success.
• If errors must be captured in some detail, record them in log messages, but consider what could occur if the log messages can be viewed by attackers. Highly sensitive information such as passwords should never be saved to log files.
• Avoid inconsistent messaging that might accidentally tip off an attacker about internal state, such as whether a user account exists or not.
