Title

CometVisu Backend for openHAB affected by SSRF/XSS

Summary

openHAB, a provider of open-source home automation software, has add-ons including the visualization add-on CometVisu. In versions 3.4.0.M4 through 4.2.0,, the proxy endpoint of openHAB's CometVisu add-on can be accessed without authentication. This proxy-feature can be exploited as Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) to induce GET HTTP requests to internal-only servers, in case openHAB is exposed in a non-private network. Furthermore, this proxy-feature can also be exploited as a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability, as an attacker is able to re-route a request to their server and return a page with malicious JavaScript code. Since the browser receives this data directly from the openHAB CometVisu UI, this JavaScript code will be executed with the origin of the CometVisu UI. This allows an attacker to exploit call endpoints on an openHAB server even if the openHAB server is located in a private network. (e.g. by sending an openHAB admin a link that proxies malicious JavaScript.) This issue may lead up to Remote Code Execution (RCE) when chained with other vulnerabilities. Users should upgrade to version 4.2.1 of the CometVisu add-on of openHAB to receive a patch.

Este problema puede provocar una ejecuci\u00f3n remota de c\u00f3digo (RCE) cuando se combina con otras vulnerabilidades.

Antes de la versi\u00f3n 4.2.1, se pod\u00eda acceder al extremo proxy del complemento CometVisu de openHAB sin autenticaci\u00f3n. Esta caracter\u00edstica de proxy se puede explotar como Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) para inducir solicitudes GET HTTP a servidores solo internos, en caso de que openHAB est\u00e9 expuesto en una red no privada. Adem\u00e1s, esta caracter\u00edstica de proxy tambi\u00e9n se puede explotar como una vulnerabilidad de cross site scripting (XSS), ya que un atacante puede redirigir una solicitud a su servidor y devolver una p\u00e1gina con c\u00f3digo JavaScript malicioso. Dado que el navegador recibe estos datos directamente desde la interfaz de usuario de openHAB CometVisu, este c\u00f3digo JavaScript se ejecutar\u00e1 con el origen de la interfaz de usuario de CometVisu. Esto permite a un atacante explotar los endpoints de llamadas en un servidor openHAB incluso si el servidor openHAB est\u00e1 ubicado en una red privada. (por ejemplo, enviando a un administrador de openHAB un enlace que representa JavaScript malicioso). Este problema puede provocar una ejecuci\u00f3n remota de c\u00f3digo (RCE) cuando se combina con otras vulnerabilidades. Los usuarios deben actualizar a la versi\u00f3n 4.2.1 del complemento CometVisu de openHAB para recibir un parche."

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-08-09 18:21 – Updated: 2026-08-05 15:01

Summary

CometVisu Backend for openHAB affected by SSRF/XSS

Details

The proxy endpoint of openHAB's CometVisu add-on can be accessed without authentication. This proxy-feature can be exploited as Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) to induce GET HTTP requests to internal-only servers, in case openHAB is exposed in a non-private network.

Furthermore, this proxy-feature can also be exploited as a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability, as an attacker is able to re-route a request to their server and return a page with malicious JavaScript code. Since the browser receives this data directly from the openHAB CometVisu UI, this JavaScript code will be executed with the origin of the CometVisu UI. This allows an attacker to exploit call endpoints on an openHAB server even if the openHAB server is located in a private network. (e.g. by sending an openHAB admin a link that proxies malicious JavaScript.)

This vulnerability was discovered with the help of CodeQL's Server-side request forgery query.

Impact

This issue may lead up to Remote Code Execution (RCE) when chained with other vulnerabilities (see: GHSL-2024-007).

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
