Description
WeGIA is a web manager for charitable institutions. In versions prior to 3.7.0, a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in lista_arquivos_etapa.php due to improper handling of user-supplied input. The id_processo parameter is directly embedded into the HTML without sanitization, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript. This can lead to session hijacking, credential theft, or execution of malicious actions in the context of the victim's browser. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.7.0.

AI Analysis

Impact

A reflected Cross‑Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the WeGIA web manager, specifically in the file lista_arquivos_etapa.php. Because the id_processo parameter is inserted into the HTML without any sanitization, an attacker can inject malicious JavaScript. If a victim clicks a crafted link or visits a maliciously crafted page, the attacker can execute arbitrary script in the victim’s browser, potentially hijacking the session, stealing credentials, or performing malicious actions on the victim’s behalf.

Affected Systems

The flaw affects the WeGIA product from LabRedesCefetRJ. All releases older than version 3.7.0 are vulnerable; the issue is fixed in 3.7.0 and later.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 6.1, the vulnerability is considered moderate severity. The EPSS score is not available, and it is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, suggesting that mass exploitation is not yet widespread. The likely attack vector involves remotely reachable web pages; an attacker can embed a malicious link that references the vulnerable id_processo parameter, triggering the XSS when an authenticated user views the page. Successful exploitation would give the attacker the same privileges as the victim’s browser session.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade WeGIA to version 3.7.0 or later to eliminate the vulnerability.
  • Apply input validation or output encoding to the id_processo parameter so that any user‑provided data cannot be interpreted as script.
  • Restrict access to lista_arquivos_etapa.php so that only authenticated users with appropriate permissions can reach the page, and consider using a web application firewall to filter suspicious input.
