Title: Owen Technologies OwenPoll Cookie Authentication Bypass Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
OwenPoll is web-based application implemented in PHP.
The application is prone to an authentication-bypass vulnerability because it fails to adequately verify user-supplied input used for cookie-based authentication. Attackers can exploit the issue by setting the 'username' cookie parameter to an administrative user's login name and the 'path' parameter to '/'.
Successful exploits may allow attackers to gain unauthorized access to the affected application, which may aid in further attacks.
OwenPoll 1.0 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
Affected Products:
- Owen Technologies OwenPoll 1.0
