Synopsis

Webmin < 1.860 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Description

According to its self-reported version, the Webmin install hosted on the remote host is prior to 1.860. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

- A Server-Side Request Forgery via the PATH_INFO to tunnel/link.cgi

- A Cross-Site Request Forgery

- A Cross-Site Scripting under the 'Others/File Manager' menu

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update to Webmin version 1.860 or latest.
