TITLE

Symantec Messaging Gateway Vulnerable to cross-site scripting

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2012-003967

DESCRIPTION

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Symantec Messaging Gateway (SMG) before 10.0 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) web content or (2) e-mail content. Symantec Messaging Gateway (formerly known as Brightmail Gateway Small Business Edition) is an easy-to-use email virus protection hardware that provides accurate and effective anti-spam protection. An attacker may leverage these issues to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This can allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. Symantec Messaging Gateway 9.5.x versions are vulnerable. Symantec Messaging Gateway is a spam filter that integrates anti-spam, anti-virus, advanced content filtering and data leakage prevention technologies from Symantec. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The new Secunia CSI 6.0 is now available in beta!

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. 4) The weakness is caused due to the application disclosing detailed component version information. 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.
