WHERE:

OPERATING SYSTEM:

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Arbor Networks Peakflow
SP, which can be exploited by malicious users to bypass certain
security restrictions and conduct script insertion attacks.
1) An unspecified error in the handling of access controls can be
exploited to view or manipulate data outside of the configured
scope.
Successful exploitation requires a scoped administrative account or,
in some cases, a non-administrative account.
2) Input to unspecified parameters in certain GET or POST requests is
not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to
insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which is executed a user's
browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious
data is viewed.
The vulnerabilities are reported in version Peakflow SP 3.5.1 and
3.6.1 with scope accounts enabled.
SOLUTION:
Apply the security patch (please see release notes of Peakflow SP
3.5.1 patch 14 or Peakflow SP 3.6.1 patch 5)
