TinyMCE Image Manager Plugin Cross Site Scripting and Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerabilities

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, upload arbitrary files and steal cookie-based authentication credentials.
