Bug vulnerability class | Cross Site Scripting |
Bug description | The remote host is using the phpScheduleIt suite. There is a bug in this software which makes it vulnerable to HTML injection attacks. An attacker may use this bug to start attacks over the web site (e.g. social engineering, phishing or technical attacks) or steal the credentials of the legitimate users. |
Bug solution | At this time, the vendor did not supply any patch. But if one is available, you should install it or upgrade to the latest version. Change the default directory of the affected suite to make it harder to run pre-defined and automated attacks against the vulnerability. Also limit unwanted connections and communications with firewalling if possible. |
