According to its self-reported version number, the remote web server is hosting a version of Symantec Web Gateway prior to version 5.2.2.
It is, therefore, affected by a operating system (OS) command injection vulnerability in an unspecified PHP script which impacts the management console. A remote, authenticated user can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary OS commands subject to the privileges of the authenticated user.
