This can be exploited to access the file system with an explorer window by setting the location to "ABOUT:helloclick here" and clicking on the link in the title bar. 2) Site Kiosk uses ActiveX controls that expose methods, which can be used by a SiteKiosk user to read and download any file from the system with permissions of the SiteKiosk user. The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 6.5.150. SOLUTION: Update to version 6.5.150.
