DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Novell Identity Manager,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site

of an affected site.

2) Input passed via unspecified parameters to forgotUser.do 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.

3) Input passed via unspecified parameters to an unspecified Portlet
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.

The vulnerabilities are reported in Identity Manager Roles Based
Provisioning Module 3.7.0 (User Application 3.7.0) prior to Field
