NOTE: this script might also allow attackers to generate the server-side \"secret\" URL without determining the original password, but this possibility was not discussed by the original researcher." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "19333", "refsource": "BID", "url": "http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/19333" }, { "name": "1362", "refsource": "SREASON", "url": "http://securityreason.com/securityalert/1362" }, { "name": "20060803 Javascript software authentication brute force attack", "refsource": "BUGTRAQ", "url": "http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/442120" } ] } }
