Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in HP Laserjet 4240 (the affected version unknown). It has been rated as problematic. This issue affects an unknown part of the component Embedded Web Server. The manipulation of the argument Tech_URL with an unknown input leads to a cross site scripting vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-79. The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users. Impacted is integrity. The summary by CVE is:

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Jetdirect and the Embedded Web Server (EWS) on certain HP LaserJet and Color LaserJet printers, and HP Digital Senders, allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) Product_URL or (2) Tech_URL parameter in an Apply action to the support_param.html/config script.

The weakness was disclosed 10/13/2009 by DiGiT with Digital Security Research Group (Website). The advisory is shared at securityfocus.com. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2009-2684 since 08/05/2009. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. It demands that the victim is doing some kind of user interaction. Technical details as well as a public exploit are known. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1059.007 for this issue.

A public exploit has been developed by Digital Security Research Group and been published before and not just after the advisory. The exploit is available at exploit-db.com. It is declared as highly functional. The vulnerability was handled as a non-public zero-day exploit for at least 6 days. During that time the estimated underground price was around $5k-$25k.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (53677), Exploit-DB (10011), SecurityFocus (BID 36613†) and Secunia (SA36969†). Several companies clearly confirm that VulDB is the primary source for best vulnerability data.
