descriptionThe version of IBM WebSphere Portal installed on the remote host is affected by the multiple vulnerabilities : - Multiple vulnerabilities exist in the Apache Cordova component, including cross-application scripting, security bypass, and information disclosure. (CVE-2014-3500, CVE-2014-3501, CVE-2014-3502) - An information disclosure flaw exists that allows remote authenticated attackers to obtain credentials by reading HTML source code. (CVE-2014-4761) - An unspecified vulnerability exists that allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system. (CVE-2014-4808) - A flaw exists that is caused by improper recursion detection during entity expansion. By tricking a user into opening a specially-crafted XML document, an attacker can cause the system to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2014-4814) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists that allows a remote attacker to identify whether or not a file exists based on the web server error codes. (CVE-2014-4821) - A flaw exists in CKEditor in the Preview plugin that allows a cross-site scripting attack. The flaw exists due to

"The version of IBM WebSphere Portal installed on the remote host is
affected by the multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple vulnerabilities exist in the Apache Cordova
    component, including cross-application scripting,
    security bypass, and information disclosure.
    (CVE-2014-3500, CVE-2014-3501, CVE-2014-3502)

  - An information disclosure flaw exists that allows
    remote authenticated attackers to obtain credentials
    by reading HTML source code. (CVE-2014-4761)

  - An unspecified vulnerability exists that allows an
    authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the
    system. (CVE-2014-4808)

  - A flaw exists that is caused by improper recursion
    detection during entity expansion. By tricking a user
    into opening a specially-crafted XML document, an
    attacker can cause the system to crash, resulting in a
    denial of service. (CVE-2014-4814)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists that
    allows a remote attacker to identify whether or not a
    file exists based on the web server error codes.
    (CVE-2014-4821)

  - A flaw exists in CKEditor in the Preview plugin that
    allows a cross-site scripting attack. The flaw exists
    due to 'plugins/preview/preview.html' not properly
    validating user-supplied input before returning it to
    users. This allows an attacker to send a specially
    crafted request designed to steal cookie-based
    authentication credentials. (CVE-2014-5191)

  - A cross-site request forgery vulnerability exists due
    to improper validation of user-supplied input. By
    tricking a user into visiting a malicious website, a
    remote attacker can perform cross-site scripting
    attacks, web cache poisoning, and other malicious
    activities. (CVE-2014-6125)

  - A cross-site scripting vulnerability exists due to
    improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote
    attacker can execute code within a victim's web browser
    within the context of the hosted site. This can lead to
    the compromise of the user's cookie-based authentication
    credentials. (CVE-2014-6126)

  - An unspecified cross-site scripting vulnerability exists
    due to improper validation of user input.
