# CVE-2024-46538
★ CVE-2024-46538 PfSense Stored XSS lead to Arbitrary Code Execution PoC ★

## Description
CVE-2024-46538 : PfSense Stored XSS Vulnerability


description: A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in pfsense v2.5.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML via a crafted payload injected into the $pconfig variable at interfaces_groups_edit.php.


## Lab Setup
Download vulnerable version([v2.5.2](https://github.com/CloudSentralDotNet/iso_pfsense)):

## Analysis
**/src/usr/local/www/interfaces_groups_edit.php**
```
if (isset($_POST['members'])) {
		$members = implode(" ", $_POST['members']);
	} else {
		$members = "";
	}
...
		// Create new group
		} else {
			$ifgroupentry['ifname'] = $_POST['ifname'];
			$a_ifgroups[] = $ifgroupentry;
		}

		write_config("Interface Group added");
		interface_group_setup($ifgroupentry);

		header("Location: interfaces_groups.php");
		exit;
	} else {
		$pconfig['descr'] = $_POST['descr'];
		$pconfig['members'] = $members;
	}
}
```

Lack of filtering in the $pconfig variable in interfaces_groups_edit.php leads to a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. The cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability allows attackers to leverage the diag_command.php endpoint to execute arbitrary commands against an administrator.
For example, Following JavaScript Can lead to Arbitrary Code execution.

## Scenario
User (Has Privilege: WebCfg - Interfaces: Groups: Edit) --(Store Malicious JavaScript Code)--> Admin (Has Privilege to execute code) --(Read interfaces_groups.php)--> JavaScript Code Execute --> Code Execution
