VULNERABILITY INFORMATION Class: Cross-Site Scripting, XSS [CWE-79] Impact: information disclosure, still anti-SCRF tokens Remotely Exploitable: Yes Locally Exploitable: No CVSS Information CVSS Base Score: 4.3 / 10 CVSS Base Vector: AV: Access Vector (Related exploit range) Network (N) AC: Access Complexity (Required attack complexity) Medium (M) Au: Authentication (Level of authentication needed to exploit) None (N) C: Impact to Confidentiality None (N) I: Impact to Integrity Partial (P) A: Impact to Availability None (N) 3. VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION An attacker can ask victims to visit a malicious site with special content, where external SWF and resourceModuleURLs attributes can force vulnerable SWF of NetWiewer Portal 7.4 to execute a query, in the context of the victim and send private data to attacker's site. 1) The attacker can steal anti-SCRF tokens and read private data 2) Also, the attacker can create an XSS vulnerability.Cross-site scripting can be used to steal another user's authentication information, such as data related to their current session. An attacker who gains access to this data may use it to impersonate the user and access all information with the same rights as the target user. If an administrator is impersonated, the security of the application may be fully compromised. 4.
