Synopsis
The remote web server is affected by multiple flaws.Description
The remote host is running Adobe Document Server, a server that dynamically creates and manipulates PDF documents as well as graphic images.The version of Adobe Document Server installed on the remote host includes the Adobe Document Server for Reader Extensions component, which itself is affected by several issues :
- Missing Access Controls An authenticated user can gain access to functionality to which they should not have access by manipulating the 'actionID' and 'pageID' parameters.
- Cross-Site Scripting Flaws The application fails to sanitize input to several parameters before using it to generate dynamic web content.
- Information Disclosure The application exposes a user's session id in the Referer header, which can lead to a loss of confidentiality. Also, the application returns different error messages during unsuccessful authentication attempts, which can be used to enumerate users.
Solution
Upgrade to Adobe Document Server for Reader Extensions 6.1 / LiveCycle Reader Extensions 7.0 or later.See Also
