Synopsis
A web application on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.Description
The version of Symantec LiveUpdate Administrator 2.x hosted on the remote web server is prior to 2.3.2.110 (2.3.2.1). It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :- A flaw exists with the forgotten password functionality where the password for an authorized user account can be forcefully reset. This could allow a remote attacker with knowledge of the account's email address to reset the password and potentially gain full access to the administrator web interface. (CVE-2014-1644)
- Multiple SQL injection flaws exist within the application, including the password recovery functionality. This could allow a remote attacker to inject or manipulate SQL queries, allowing the manipulation or disclosure of arbitrary data.
(CVE-2014-1645)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
Solution
Upgrade to LiveUpdate Administrator 2.3.2.110 or later.See Also
