Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in WebGUI, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and bypass certain security restrictions.
1) Input passed to unspecified parameters in operation pages is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.
2) A vulnerability is caused due to improper access restriction in the email based password recovery. This can be exploited to reset any user's password by supplying the victim's username and an e-mail address belonging to the attacker and not to the victim.
The vulnerabilities are reported in version 7.5.25. Prior versions may also be affected.
