Details:  
========  
Multiple persistent input validation vulnerabilities are detected on eFronts Community++ application v3.6.10.  
The vulnerability allows an remote attacker or local low privileged user account to inject/implement malicious   
persistent script code. Successful exploitation with low required user inter action can result in session hijacking   
or persistent context manipulations.
