medium Nessus Plugin ID 65984
Language:
Synopsis
A web application hosted on the remote web server contains multiple vulnerabilities.Description
The version of Cerb installed on the remote host is earlier than 6.2.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:- A flaw exists in that the application does not validate input passed via HTML email attachments, making it vulnerable to XSS. An attacker could exploit this issue to inject arbitrary HTML and script code into a user's browser to be executed within the security context of the affected site.
- A flaw exists in the 'Remember me' cookie for the login process that could potentially disclose information to a malicious script in a browser.
Solution
Update to Cerb 6.2.5 or later.See Also
