| Detailed Description |
A version of Horde Application Framework which is older than version 2.2.8 is detected as running on the host. The Horde Application Framework is an Web application framework written in PHP. Horde Application Framework versions prior to 2.2.8 are vulnerable to a cross-site scripting vulnerability, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input when setting the parent frame's page title by javascript in 'templates/common-footer.inc' script. This vulnerability could permit a remote attacker to create a malicious URI link that includes hostile HTML and script code. If this link were to be followed, the hostile code may be rendered in the web browser of the victim user. This would occur in the security context of the affected web site and may allow for theft of cookie-based authentication credentials or other attacks.
* Note: This check solely relied on the version number of the Horde installed on the remote Web server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
* Platforms Affected:
Horde Project, Horde Application Framework versions prior to 2.2.8
Linux Any version
Unix Any version |
| Recommendation |
Upgrade to the latest version of Horde Application Framework (2.2.8 or later), available from the Horde Web site at http://www.horde.org/horde/ |
