This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session. 2) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without performing proper validity checks to verify the requests. This can be exploited to e.g. gain administrative access when a logged-in administrative user visits a specially crafted web page. 3) An error within the management interface can be exploited to perform otherwise restricted actions and e.g. modify the underlying web application. The vulnerabilities are reported in versions 9.5.x and prior. SOLUTION: Upgrade to version 10. PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: The vendor credits Ben Williams, NGS Secure.
