Description:
Robert Passlow has reported a vulnerability in Jiwa Financials, which can be exploited by malicious users to disclose potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability is caused due to the application not properly restricting the Crystal Report files that are accessible by an authenticated user. This can be exploited to disclose information in reports that are not intended for the current user.
Successful exploitation allows disclosure of information from the Jiwa database (e.g. user's credentials for the Jiwa application).
The vulnerability has been reported in version 6.4.14. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 6.5.0.
Provided and/or discovered by:
