Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions McAfee VirusScan Enterprise versions 2.0.3 and earlier

Description The issue exists due to insufficient protection of the web page structure, allowing a remote attacker to inject arbitrary web or HTML code. This can be achieved through a crafted user input, exploiting a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

Recommendations For versions 2.0.3 and earlier, update to a version that includes a fix for this issue to prevent exploitation. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting user input to minimize the risk of arbitrary code injection until a patch is available.
