Syneto Unified Threat Management Multiple Cross Site Scripting and HTML Injection Vulnerabilities

Syneto Unified Threat Management is prone to multiple cross-site scripting and HTML-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.

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 possible.

Unified Threat Management 1.4.2 and 1.3.3 Community Edition are vulnerable; other versions may be affected.

Syneto Unified Threat Management Multiple Cross Site Scripting and HTML Injection Vulnerabilities
