Blackboard : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, CVSS score >= 6

Blackboard Learn 1.10.1 allows remote authenticated users to read unintended files by entering student credentials and then directly visiting a certain webapps/bbcms/execute/ URL.

Blackboard Collaborate Ultra 20.02 is affected by a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. The XSS payload will execute on the class room, which leads to stealing cookies from users who join the class.

The bb-auth-provider-cas authentication module within Blackboard Learn 2018-07-02 is susceptible to HTTP host header spoofing during Central Authentication Service (CAS) service ticket validation, enabling a phishing attack from the CAS server login page.

Blackboard Learn (Since at least 17th of October 2017) has allowed Unvalidated Redirects on any signed-in user through its endpoints for handling Shibboleth logins, as demonstrated by a webapps/bb-auth-provider-shibboleth-BBLEARN/execute/shibbolethLogin?returnUrl= URI.

The server in Blackboard Academic Suite 7.x stores MD5 password hashes that are provided directly by clients, which makes it easier for remote attackers to access accounts via a modified client that skips the javascript/md5.js hash calculation, and instead sends an arbitrary MD5 string.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Blackboard Academic Suite 6.2.3.23 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary HTML or web script by bypassing client-side validation through disabling JavaScript when submitting an essay response, which has no server-side validation before being viewed via "View Attempt Details" in the Gradebook.

announcement.pl in Blackboard Learning and Community Portal System in Academic Suite 6.3.1.424, 6.2.3.23, and other versions before 6 allows remote attackers to gain administrator privileges by setting the context parameter to "admin".

The login page in Blackboard Learning and Community Portal System in Academic Suite 6.3.1.424, 6.2.3.23, and other versions before 6 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain privileges as other users via a modified user_id parameter and a "/" in the encoded_pw parameter.

Blackboard Learning and Community Portal System in Academic Suite 6.3.1.424, 6.2.3.23, and other versions before 6 allows remote attackers to redirect users to other URLs and conduct phishing attacks via a modified url parameter to frameset.jsp, which loads the URL into a frame and causes it to appear to be part of a valid page.

Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in Blackboard 5 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary web script via (1) the course_id parameter in a link to login.pl, (2) the CTID parameter in ProcessInfo.cgi, or (3) the Message parameter in index.cgi.

BlackBoard CourseInfo 4.0 does not properly authenticate users, which allows local users to modify CourseInfo database information and gain privileges by directly calling the supporting CGI programs such as user_update_passwd.pl and user_update_admin.pl.
