Description:
Several vulnerabilities were reported in Novell eDirectory. A remote user can conduct cross-site scripting attacks. A remote authenticated user can view potentially sensitive information. A remote authenticated administrative user can remove data files. The impact of one vulnerability was not disclosed.
The iMonitor administrative interface does not properly filter HTML code from user-supplied input before displaying the input [CVE-2014-5212]. A remote user can cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the target user's browser. The code will originate from the site running the Novell eDirectory iMonitor 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.
