TITLE:
Symantec Brightmail Gateway Control Center Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34885

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34885/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Symantec Brightmail
Gateway, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks and by malicious users to bypass certain
security restrictions.

1) Certain unspecified input passed to the Control Center 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) An error when processing unspecified console functions can be
exploited by a Control Center user to gain administrative
privileges.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 8.0.1.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 8.0.1 or later.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Marian Ventuneac, Perot Systems
