DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Proofpoint Enterprise
Protection, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks, bypass certain
security restrictions, disclose sensitive information, and compromise
a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed via the "displayprogress" parameter to
enduser/process.cgi 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.

Note: This vulnerability only affects version 5.5.5.

2) The web interface does not verify credentials before allowing
access to the mail filter interface, which can be exploited to gain
access to a user's mail filter interface.

3) Certain unspecified input is not properly verified before being
used to access files. This can be exploited to access arbitrary files
via directory traversal attacks.

4) Certain unspecified input is not properly sanitised before being
used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries
by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

5)  An error in the application allows access to certain
administrative modules without checking for authentication.

6) Certain unspecified input is not properly sanitised before being
used and can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary commands.

SOLUTION:
Apply patches.
