Descriptions

ar web content manager (AWCM) 2.2 does not restrict the number of comment records that can be submitted through HTTP requests, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) via the coment parameter to (1) show_video.php or (2) topic.php.

ar web content manager (AWCM) v2.2 no limita el número de registros de comentarios que se pueden enviar a través de peticiones HTTP, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo de disco) mediante el parámetro coment a (1) show_video.php o (2) topic.php.

AWCM version 2.2 appears to suffer from cookie forgery and direct access vulnerabilities.
