Overview
Web widgets hosted by Microsoft’s online login portal, login.live.com, do not perform sufficient parameter sanitization allowing an attacker to inject arbitrary text.
Background
Microsoft offers several legacy Javascript widgets that are used to display and customize sign-in link and buttons using Windows Live ID. They are hosted on login.live.com at the following URLs:
https://login.live.com/
https://login.live.com/
https://login.live.com/
They are documented by Microsoft here and accept several parameters that are used to customize the resulting widget.
Details
One of the parameters, style, is used to pass in CSS styling commands for the Javascript widgets described above. However, this parameter is not sanitized, and reflects back the information passed to to it via Javascript's alert() method. It can be coerced to reflect arbitrary text of the attacker’s choosing, making it seemingly appear on a legit Microsoft website. While this does not result in script execution, it can be used as part of a social engineering campaign to attack users.
Example URL with malicious content:
