Issue/Introduction



Three vulnerabilities were found in WebAgent for IIS(8.5) and SPS.

(1) X-Frame-Options header isn't set
Because the X-Frame-Options header isn't set, it is vulnerable against "Clickjacking".
Target: entire site

Is this prevented by the following feature?

(2) Content Security Policy isn't set
Because of the Content Security Policy isn't set, Web browsers' protection function isn't enabled for preventing Injection attacks to HTML such as Cross-site Scripting.
Target: entire site

(3) Possibilities of redirecting to inappropriate URL by inserting a URL as a parameter.
Example:
https://siteminder.excample.com/forms/login.fcc?...(snip)...TARGET=-SM-http%3a%2f%2fad%2ecaj%2eco%2ejp%2fprotection%2fmenu

Is it a solution to use "SecureURLs" ACO parameter?
