TIPS MailPost, a web application used for emailing HTML form data to a third party, is installed on the remote host.

The version of MailPost hosted on the remote web server has a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the ‘append’ variable of mailpost.exe when debug mode is enabled. Debug mode is enabled by default. A remote attacker could exploit this to impersonate legitimate users.

This version of MailPost reportedly has other vulnerabilities, though Nessus has not checked for those issues.
