Description
The Meeting Room Booking System (MRBS) is a PHP-based application for booking meeting rooms. Prior to version 1.12.2, an unauthenticated request can be made to redirect the user to a query-specified location. This allows an attacker to create a specially-crafted URL to an MRBS installation that will cause the user who clicks it to be redirected to the attacker-specified redirect URL, which could be a spoofed MRBS login page, for example. Version 1.12.2 contains a fix. No known workarounds are available.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Meeting Room Booking System is vulnerable to an unauthenticated open redirect that allows an attacker to supply a query‑specified URL to which a user will be redirected without authentication. This flaw, classified as CWE‑601, can be used to send users to phishing sites or spoofed login pages, thereby facilitating credential theft or other social‑engineering attacks.

Affected Systems

Any installation of the Meeting Room Booking System (MRBS) utilizing the mrbs-code product from the meeting‑room‑booking‑system vendor and running a version older than 1.12.2 is affected. Version 1.12.2 and later contain the necessary fix.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.9 reflects moderate severity, with no exploit probability data available and the vulnerability not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers can exploit the flaw simply by injecting a crafted redirection URL into a published link, requiring no authentication or privileged access. The likelihood of an attack increases in environments where users click external links or share URLs with colleagues.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the vendor’s patch by upgrading MRBS to version 1.12.2 or later.
  • Restrict redirect targets by configuring the application to allow only whitelisted domains or by disabling the redirect query parameter altogether.
  • Deploy a web application firewall rule that detects and blocks malicious redirect attempts by monitoring unexpected URL parameters.
