A permissive cross-domain policy with untrusted domains vulnerability in Fortinet FortiADC 7.1.0 - 7.1.1, FortiDDoS-F 6.3.0 - 6.3.4 and 6.4.0 - 6.4.1 allow an unauthorized attacker to carry out privileged actions and retrieve sensitive information via crafted web requests.
The product uses a web-client protection mechanism such as a Content Security Policy (CSP) or cross-domain policy file, but the policy includes untrusted domains with which the web client is allowed to communicate.
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fortiadc | Fortinet | 7.1.0 (including) | 7.1.0 (including) |
| Fortiadc | Fortinet | 7.1.1 (including) | 7.1.1 (including) |
If a cross-domain policy file includes domains that should not be trusted, such as when using wildcards under a high-level domain, then the application could be attacked by these untrusted domains. In many cases, the attack can be launched without the victim even being aware of it.
