This host is installed with FlashChat and is prone to Security Bypass Vulnerability.

Successful exploitation will let the attacker bypass certain security restrictions and gain unauthorized administrative access to the affected application.

No solution or patch was made available for at least one year since disclosure of this vulnerability. Likely none will be provided anymore. General solution options are to upgrade to a newer release, disable respective features, remove the product or replace the product by another one.

This flaw is due to an error in the connection.php script. By setting the 's' parameter to a value of '7' a remote attacker could bypass the role filtering mechanism.

FlashChat Version 5.0.8 and prior
