DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Absolute News Manager
.NET, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks, or to disclose
sensitive information.

download arbitrary files through directory traversal attacks.

2) Input passed to the "z", "pz", "ord", and "sort" parameters in
xlaabsolutenm.aspx is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL
queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.

3) Input passed to the "rmore" parameter in xlaabsolutenm.aspx and to
the "template" parameter in pages/default.aspx is not properly
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in

also be affected.
