Language:
Synopsis
The remote web server hosts a PHP script that is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability.Description
The LogAnalyzer install hosted on the remote web server is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability due to a failure to properly sanitize user input to the 'filter' parameter of the 'index.php' script. An attacker can 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.The application is reportedly also affected by a SQL injection vulnerability, an arbitrary file read vulnerability, and additional cross-site scripting vulnerabilities; however, Nessus has not tested for these additional vulnerabilities.
Solution
Upgrade to version 3.4.3 / 3.5.4 or later.See Also
