Profense Cross Site Request Forgery and Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities
Profense is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability and a cross-site request-forgery vulnerability.
An attacker can exploit the cross-site request forgery issue to alter the settings on affected devices. This may lead to further network-based attacks.
The attacker can exploit the cross-site scripting issue to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials. Other attacks are also possible.
Profense 2.6.2 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
