The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to verify the requests. This can be exploited to e.g. disable the administrative security option in the master configuration by tricking a logged in administrative user into visiting a malicious web site. The vulnerability is reported in version 7.0.0.11 and 7.0.0.13. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not browse untrusted sites or follow untrusted links while being logged-in to the application. PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: Francisco Falcon, Core Security Technologies and Alejandro Rodriguez.
