The vulnerability is caused due to a validation error when identifying a user of web requests. This can be exploited to bypass the authentication mechanism by setting the "CMLogUserwww2" and "OnlineLearnUserwww2" cookie values to a valid user ID. Successful exploitation requires creating a valid ASP.NET session ID. The vulnerability is reported in version 6.7. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Reportedly a patch has been released. Contact the vendor for further information.
