Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Microsoft Windows 2003, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

The "ReturnURL" parameter in the web-based Remote Administration tool is not properly sanitised in various scripts before being returned to users. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session.

Successful exploitation may potentially grant access to the administration tool.

It is also possible to change the password of the user currently logged in without knowing the user's password using the "users/user_setpassword.asp" script.
