LivePerson LPTAG is a software component widely used by organizations to facilitate real-time chat and messaging services on their websites. This software is employed by customer service departments to enhance customer engagement and support. By integrating LivePerson LPTAG, businesses can interact with customers, increasing lead conversion and satisfaction rates. The product functions across various industries where customer interaction through digital means is necessary. LPTAG also supports integration with other business tools, streamlining operations. Despite its utility, like many software products, it can present security vulnerabilities.
The detected vulnerability is a Content-Security-Policy (CSP) Bypass within the LivePerson LPTAG. This vulnerability arises from inadequate CSP configurations, which would otherwise prevent the execution of unauthorized scripts. A CSP Bypass can be exploited to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, allowing attackers to execute malicious code in the context of the security-vulnerable website. Consequently, this can lead to various threats, including data theft and session hijacking. Organizations using this product are at risk without proper detection and mitigation measures. Prompt identification of this vulnerability is crucial in maintaining a secure digital presence.
The technical details of this vulnerability involve the injection of scripts capable of bypassing the CSP restrictions. Vulnerable endpoints are those specifying the header part containing "Content-Security-Policy" and "liveperson.net". The vulnerability allows attackers to manipulate CSP by inserting malicious scripts, specifically through carefully crafted URL parameters. By using encoded injection payloads, attackers navigate around content security measures to execute potentially harmful code. This process can exploit unsuspecting users visiting sites with the LivePerson LPTAG in use. Detection involves matching these patterns to understand the risk profile accurately.
Exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to severe consequences, including unauthorized data access and compromise of user accounts. Malicious actors may execute JavaScript on victim clients, leading to information disclosure or redirection to phishing sites. Potential impacts include theft of sensitive data like login credentials stored in cookies. Session hijacking is another risk, where the attacker gains control over the user's active session on the affected application. Additionally, loss of trust in an organization's system security and potential leakage of proprietary business information could occur.
