Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute a cross-frame scripting (XFS) attack.

The weakness exists due to insufficient protections for HTML inline frames (iframes). A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, load valid content from the target system within an HTML iframe and attempt to conduct cross-site scripting, cross-site request forgery, clickjacking, or phishing attacks.

Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
