Cross-site scripting vulnerability in the authentication page for (1) Webmin 0.96 and (2) Usermin 0.90 allows remote attackers to insert script into an error page and possibly steal cookies.

(1) Webmin 0.96 and (2) Usermin 0.90 with password timeouts enabled allow local and possibly remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain privileges via certain control characters in the authentication information, which can force Webmin or Usermin to accept arbitrary username/session ID combinations.

miniserv.pl in (1) Webmin before 1.070 and (2) Usermin before 1.000 does not properly handle metacharacters such as line feeds and carriage returns (CRLF) in Base-64 encoded strings during Basic authentication, which allows remote attackers to spoof a session ID and gain root privileges.

The maketemp.pl script in Usermin 1.070 and 1.080 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files at install time via a symlink attack on the /tmp/.usermin directory.

The account lockout functionality in (1) Webmin 1.140 and (2) Usermin 1.070 does not parse certain character strings, which allows remote attackers to conduct a brute force attack to guess user IDs and passwords.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the web mail module for Usermin 1.070 allows remote attackers to insert arbitrary HTML and script via e-mail messages.

The web mail functionality in Usermin 1.x and Webmin 1.x allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in an e-mail message.

Unknown vulnerability in (1) Webmin and (2) Usermin before 1.200 causes Webmin to change permissions and ownership of configuration files, with unknown impact.

miniserv.pl in Webmin before 1.230 and Usermin before 1.160, when "full PAM conversations" is enabled, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication by spoofing session IDs via certain metacharacters (line feed or carriage return).

Webmin before 1.290 and Usermin before 1.220 calls the simplify_path function before decoding HTML, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, as demonstrated using "..%01" sequences, which bypass the removal of "../" sequences before bytes such as "%01" are removed from the filename. NOTE: This is a different issue than CVE-2006-3274.
