This can be exploited to crash an affected server via an HTTP request containing a specially crafted "Accept" header. 2) 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. change an administrator's password if a logged-in administrator visits a specially crafted web site. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 3.6.33156. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Upgrade to version 4.1.39229.
