Base vector

AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Forum Web Server versions 1.6 and earlier

Description: The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML, potentially leading to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This can be achieved via the Subject field in "post1.htm" and the File Description field in "postfile2.htm".

Recommendations: For Forum Web Server versions 1.6 and earlier, consider disabling the fields that allow user input, such as the Subject field in "post1.htm" and the File Description field in "postfile2.htm", until a fix is available. Restrict access to these fields to minimize the risk of exploitation.
