`PR10-11: Multiple XSS injection vulnerabilities and a offsite  
redirection flaw within HP System Management Homepage (Insight Manager)  
  
Vulnerability found: 6th June 2010  
  
Date Published 20th May 2011  
  
Severity: Medium  
  
  
Description:  
  
XSS vulnerabilities have been found within HP System Management; Arising  
from insufficient input filtering.  
By using a specially-crafted link, and tricking the victim into clicking  
on it, an attacker can perform malicious attacks such as the following:  
  
- Hijack user accounts by stealing the victim's cookies that are  
assigned to the victim's browser by the vulnerable website  
  
- Hijack user accounts by injecting a "fake" html form on the html  
rendered by the victim's web browser  
  
- Redirect the victim to a malicious third-party website which would  
perform a phishing attack to steal the user credentials or exploit a  
vulnerability (i.e.: buffer overflow) on the  
  
victim's web browser in order to compromise the victim's workstation  
  
Notes:  
  
Authentication is normally needed, unless system has been configured to  
support anonymous autologin.
