Due to authentication weaknesses in '.cobalt/siteUserMod/siteUserMod.cgi/' any user with Site Administrator access to a RaQ 1 or 2 with web administration enabled can elevate themselves to Server Administration access by changing the password of the 'admin' account.

  • Cobalt RaQ 2.0.0
  • Cobalt RaQ 3.0.0
