Cross Site Scripting vulnerabilities where found providing a potential for malicious scripts to be injected into a client browser. Affected products: ABB ASPECT - Enterprise v3.08.02; NEXUS Series v3.08.02; MATRIX Series v3.08.02
ABB Cylon Aspect version 3.08.02 suffers from an authenticated blind command injection vulnerability.
