Ipswitch WhatsUp Gold < 16.4 Multiple Vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Plugin ID 88097

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host has a version of Ipswitch WhatsUp Gold installed that is prior to 16.4.0. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities exist due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input to the 'sUniqueID' parameter and the 'find device' field. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to inject or manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database, resulting in the manipulation or disclosure of arbitrary data. (CVE-2015-6004)

- Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input to SNMP OID objects, SNMP trap messages, the View Names field, the Group Names field, the Flow Monitor Credentials field, the Flow Monitor Threshold Name field, the Task Library Name field, the Task Library Description field, the Policy Library Name field, the Policy Library Description field, the Template Library Name field, the Template Library Description field, the System Script Library Name field, the System Script Library Description field, and the CLI Settings Library Description field. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted request, to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session. (CVE-2015-6005)

- A SQL injection vulnerability exists due to improper validation of serialized XML objects in the DroneDeleteOldMeasurements SOAP request handler. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted SOAP request, to inject or manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database, resulting in the manipulation or disclosure of arbitrary data. (CVE-2015-8261)

Solution

Upgrade to Ipswitch WhatsUp Gold 16.4.0 or later.
