Description: A vulnerability was reported in Apache in mod_imap. A remote user can conduct cross-site scripting attacks. HP OpenView Network Node Manager is affected.
The mod_imap module does not properly validate user-supplied input when using the Referer directive with image maps. In certain
configurations, a remote user can create a specially crafted URL that, when loaded by a target user, will cause arbitrary scripting
code to be executed by the target user's browser. The code will originate from the site running the Apache software and will run
in the security context of that site. As a result, the code will be able to access the target user's cookies (including authentication
cookies), if any, associated with the site, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take
actions on the site acting as the target user.
|
Impact: A remote user can access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site running the
affected Apache software, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on the site
acting as the target user.
