Adobe RoboHelp and RoboHelp Server Cross Site Scripting Issues


Description   Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Adobe RoboHelp and RoboHelp Server, which could be exploited by attackers to gain knowledge of sensitive information. These issues are caused by input validation errors in the "template_stock/whutils.js", "Report_Template.asp", "redirect.asp" and "SQL_Lib.asp" files when processing user-supplied URLs, which could be exploited by attackers to cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the user's browser in the security context of an affected site.
