User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.12; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0 Build ID: 20180702164905 Steps to reproduce: Firefox version: 62.0b5 (64 bit) OSX 10.12.5 I noticed in the wild some strange behaviour when visiting a website that suddenly redirected me to something else without warning (I'm trying to contact the company about this but having trouble) After investigation, it looks like if: a) The user does not have the Flash plugin installed b) A website has an `<embed>` tag for flash content that is pointing to a different origin c) That origin does not return Flash content, but a HTML response with javascript in it Then Firefox will execute that javascript. I've reproduced it using the attached proof of concept code (using the Go Programming Language). Proof of concept instructions: 1) Remove Flash plugin from the system 2) Unzip `proof-of-concept.zip` 2) Run main.go `go run main.go` (this will run on port 8080) 3) Run differentorigin.go `go run differentorigin.go` (this will run on port 8082) 4) Open firefox and navigate to http://localhost:8080 I'm not sure of the severity of this risk, but I've seen it in the wild with a poorly coded website that is pointing to an SWF resource from a domain that has since been taken over/hijacked and is redirecting the user using top.location = .... I cannot reproduce this in Chrome, probably because it has its own Flash plugin, and Safari doesn't do anything either (it reports a missing flash plugin) Actual results: Javascript is executed by the browser Expected results: No javascript executed/error thrown about missing flash plugin?

Component: Untriaged → Plug-ins
Product: Firefox → Core
Note I can also reproduce this by running the `differentorigin.go` script on an Amazon EC2 instance and then pointing the "SWF" resource in main.go to that address, so it's definitely working cross origin, e.g. ``` <embed id="innocent_flash_movie" src="http://ec2-34-245-136-0.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:8082/innocent_flash_movie.swf" loop="false" menu="false" quality="best" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="500" height="500" name="innocent_flash_movie" align="middle" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" flashvars="id=1&amp;width=91&amp;height=26" wmode="transparent" /> ```
Marking for the bounty as requested. It looks like this was an intentional change in bug 1237963 to match the behavior of other browsers to make <embed> work more like <object> which DOES explicitly support HTML documents. It's technically wrong per spec but otherwise makes sense to simplify the differences (especially since plugins are dying out). An issue to change the spec to match behavior appears to be uncontroversial but hasn't been acted on yet: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/513 I'm not sure what security risk you're seeing here though. The document's scripting power is constrained by the same-origin-policy, the same as a flash object. In the "lapsed domain takeover by squatter" scenario the squatter could just put a flash at that URL with the same capabilities if we followed the spec. qdot: does that sound right?

> the squatter could just put a flash at that URL with the same capabilities Yep, I'm trying to contact the company about this issue because I can see how that would happen The reason why I came across is it was, upon visiting the affected site, it immediately redirected me elsewhere because the following code was on the squatters page: ``` <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"> if (top.location!=location){ top.location.href=location.protocol + "//" + location.host + location.pathname + (location.search ? location.search + "&" : "?") + "_xafvr=ODk4YmRjYzQ5MTgzYmFiMjg2NzA5ZDljMTA2ZmVkZWI3Nzc2ODY5Yiw1YjNlODNlMzczNmM1"; } </script> ``` While I agree that the author of that website should just write better code, it's the behavioural difference between the browsers that surprised me, namely * Chrome makes the request to the other origin, but doesn't execute the javascript * Safari does not make the request, and reports a 'missing' plugin for Flash on the page * Firefox executes the javascript As you've suggested this isn't limited to Flash either, you can do the same with just a webm file embed and it will exhibit the same behaviour ``` <embed type="video/webm" src="http://localhost:8082/innocent_flash_movie.swf" width="300" height="200"> ```
Hmm actually, I've just repeated the same test on Chrome but using the webm <embed> instead of the Flash one. ``` <embed type="video/webm" src="http://localhost:8082/innocent_flash_movie.swf" width="300" height="200"> ``` in main.go, and the javascript is executed. I'm really not sure what to say here other than, is this desired behaviour?
By the way if you want an example of the URL where I originally saw this issue....(I'm really struggling to find a security contact from there to fix it) http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/funds/widget/fundreport.aspx?sec={ It's because they're using some copy-to-clipboard thing on that page, but the code has hard coded an external link to a flash file hosted on 'steamdev.com' which used to be owned by the original developer of that ZCLIP library according to waybackmachine. ``` $('#copy_text').zclip({ path: "http://www.steamdev.com/zclip/js/ZeroClipboard.swf", //copy: $('#'+'ctl00_ctl00_MainContent_Layout_1MainContent_tbCode').text() copy: function () { return $('#' + 'ctl00_ctl00_MainContent_Layout_1MainContent_tbCode').val(); } }); ``` ^ That library creates an <embed> tag on the page for flash content, with the src=http://www.steamdev.com/zclip/js/ZeroClipboard.swf Since then the domain has been squatted, you get redirected to the squatters website because they have that `top.location` bit in their code.
Sounds right to me, but I'm pulling in bz/annevk because the object/embed spec is difficult and I'm not real qualified to make a sound security bug judgement on it yet.

Looks to me at first glance (from a bit of testing) like Safari and Chrome always force <embed> down the plug-in codepath if a type attribute is specified and isn't a type the browser knows something about. For types the browser does know something about the type attribute is ignored, as comment 4 notes. That's not quite what we implemented in bug 1237963 but we can change to that, right?

This isn't really a security problem for the browser -- in the scenario described the domain squatter could just supply a real flash in any event to hack the page. Leaving it hidden because it's a security problem for the site named in comment 5

Just FYI I got in touch with them (morningstar) and looks like they've fixed it on that page, so if anyone is looking at it now they won't see the original issue. I guess the question is down to behaviour, when type="application/x-shockwave-flash" and the plugin isn't installed. * Safari shows a 'missing plugin' style placeholder * Chrome doesn't do anything ** Although it has its own built in version of Flash that I don't think you can uninstall, so I'd imagine if you ran a build of Chrome without flash, it would exhibit the same behaviour as Firefox * Edge? I don't know I don't have access to a windows box * Firefox renders the response as embedded HTML
We should still show a missing plugin placeholder when the browser doesn't know what to do with the mime type, as mentioned in comment 7. I'll see about adding that path.

At the moment, a tag that has document type capabilities will try to load tag content with invalid MIME types as a document. This patch will cause the load to fail silently instead. This will cause failures in certain WPTs that expect plugins to be present to fill in MIME type requirements, which we currently don't have available on CI. These WPTs have been disabled for the moment. MozReview-Commit-ID: 9JGR4LClE5x
Latest try run at https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=6aa80a042b931997a4af5ea0247934f4aa54b8c0 Still trying to push this down the plugin path but some of the logic has changed since we expect literally one and only one MIME time down that path now (flash), so I've been having some issues with it. The patch above may end up running too early, since it cuts out the load before we even hit CSP checks, which may cause WPT issues in the future. Filling in Comment 9: - Edge: Renders URL as document in frame (and runs javascript), even with invalid MIME.
And of course right after I push the patch I see what the problem was with the plugin path. Removing review request while I see if new method works out.
Welp, nevermind. First patch is valid (it does end up moving us down the unsupported fallback path, and unlike chrome we have no "unsupported plugin" UI now so we just fail silently) and we'd fail the WPT no matter what. Resubmitting for review.

Can we unhide this now? Comment 9 says reporter got in touch with site and it was fixed there, and I've confirmed that on my end.

Ok, well, Lando won't let me land this because it's still marked as a security revision, so we'll need to get that figured out.
(In reply to Kyle Machulis [:qdot] [:kmachulis] (if a patch has no decent commit message, automatic r-) from comment #20) > Lando won't let me land this because it's still marked as a security revision Is that a rule? Would be a reasonable restriction for a sec-high/critical bug without security-approval, or a bug without a sec- rating (because it might be sec-high) but this bug would be OK to land.

The test that's failing here used an invalid mime type ("application/html"), so that needed to be fixed anyways. New try running at https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=59cd69e917c5da0151394787f4358c83e6c22e9a, will reland if that passes.

Comment on attachment 8996142 [details] Bug 1473833 - Skip object loading when given unrecognized mime type; r=bz Approval Request Comment [Feature/Bug causing the regression]: bug 1237963 [User impact if declined]: Cross-origin embed tags may execute javascript in situations where unhandled MIME type is passed. Rare, and requires a lot of work to exploit, but not great. [Is this code covered by automated tests?]: Not yet. Will be a WPT situation, but we're still working out details on that. See https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/3876 for more info. [Has the fix been verified in Nightly?]: Yes [Needs manual test from QE? If yes, steps to reproduce]: [List of other uplifts needed for the feature/fix]: None [Is the change risky?]: No [Why is the change risky/not risky?]: Only restricts loads where we don't know the MIME type, so it's a rare occurrence. [String changes made/needed]: None

Comment on attachment 8996142 [details] Bug 1473833 - Skip object loading when given unrecognized mime type; r=bz This isn't a new issue but I'd like to see the fix get into 62 release. Let's uplift for beta 17.

Kyle, do you want to file a followup bug here for adding tests?

Thanks for doing the patch :qdot, and thanks to everyone who got involved, was a really interesting to see this unfold! I wrote a blog post about this https://djhworld.github.io/post/2018/08/12/i-thought-i-found-a-browser-security-bug/ here.
We're handling tests as WPTs in the spec bug: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/3876. The situation is a little odd, as I'm not sure where I'll put the WPTs, but I've failed bug 1482995 and will continue updates there.

That would be *filed*, not failed. Quite the typo there. :|

I tested this on Windows 10, Ubuntu 16.04, and OSX 10.13 with the latest nightly and beta (62.0b17). The test script provided in the comment 33 is also used: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/3876 Using this test script, chrome shows "This plug is not supported", but Firefox does not load it which is an intended behavior. So this verified as fixed on Firefox Nightly and Beta.

Comment on attachment 8996142 [details] Bug 1473833 - Skip object loading when given unrecognized mime type; r=bz I don't think the severity and impact of this issue warrants backport to ESR60. Feel free to NI me if you feel strongly otherwise.
