Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14735)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


2) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2015-9251)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data when a cross-domain Ajax request is performed without the dataType option. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary text/javascript responses in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


3) Deserialization of untrusted data (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-8013)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can supply specially crafted data, trigger a deserialization error in a subclass of 'AbstractDocuent' and access potentially sensitive information.


4) Missing authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1258)

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to bypass security restrictions on the target system.

The weakness exists due to improper security restrictions when using Spring Security method security. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted request, bypass authorization restrictions and gain unauthorized access to certain methods that should be restricted.
