Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Parallels Plesk Panel version 10.4.4 build20111103.18

Description The issue allows remote attackers to bypass authentication by leveraging an unattended workstation. This is due to the Control Panel generating a password form field without disabling the autocomplete feature, making it easier for attackers to exploit. The vulnerability is demonstrated by forms in server/google-tools/ and certain other files.

Recommendations For Parallels Plesk Panel version 10.4.4 build20111103.18, consider disabling the autocomplete feature for password form fields as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the Control Panel to minimize the risk of exploitation.
