It allows attackers to enter comments which include malicious JavaScript. Once the script in these comments is executed, the attacker could then do anything from infecting the PCs of visitors to completely hijacking the website; locking the original administrator out of their account.

A vulnerability in the Remote Mobile Access Subsystem in Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Cisco Unified CM) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to supply a crafted Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificate that may be accepted by the affected device. The vulnerability is due to improper validation of the SAN field of a TLS certificate. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by impersonating a VCS core device and supplying a certificate signed by a certificate authority trusted by the Cisco Unified CM that contains crafted values in the SAN field.
