Discussion

Barracuda Message Archiver 'index.cgi' Multiple HTML-injection Vulnerabilities

Barracuda Message Archiver is prone to multiple HTML-injection vulnerabilities because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

Successful exploits will allow attacker-supplied HTML and script code to run in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or control how the site is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible.

Barracuda Message Archiver 650 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
