DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in IBM Lotus Expeditor,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks, disclose potentially sensitive information, bypass
certain security restrictions,  and compromise a user's system.

1) Input passed to unspecified parameters within the Eclipse help
component is not properly verified before being used to read files.
This can be exploited to disclose arbitrary files from local
resources via directory traversal attacks.

2) An error in the Web Container within the access control mechanism
when processing unspecified request headers can be exploited to spoof
a header making it appear to be originating from a trusted location
(e.g. localhost).

3) The application loads unspecified libraries in an insecure manner
and can be exploited to load arbitrary libraries by tricking a user
into e.g. opening an unspecified file located on a remote WebDAV or
SMB share.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows execution of
arbitrary code.

4) Some cross-site scripting vulnerabilities exist within the bundled
Eclipse Help Server.

For more information:
SA42236

5) Input passed via the "searchWord" parameter to searchView.jsp and
the "workingSet" parameter to workingSetManager.jsp is not properly
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of the bundled Help Server site.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 6.2 FP5 (Fix Pack 5) + Security Pack.
