Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions AIST NetCat versions 3.12 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks. This can be achieved via the redirect parameter in a logoff action to "modules/auth/index.php" or the url parameter to "modules/linkmanager/redirect.php".

Recommendations For AIST NetCat versions 3.12 and earlier, consider disabling the logoff action to "modules/auth/index.php" and restricting access to the "modules/linkmanager/redirect.php" endpoint until a patch is available. Avoid using the redirect and url parameters in the affected API endpoints until the issue is resolved.
