Summary

The McAfee IntruShield Security Management System contains a flaw that allows remote authenticated users to manipulate the 'Generate Reports' feature. By setting the Access option to 'true,' these users can gain unauthorized access to modify alerts. This can be achieved through parameters such as 'fullAccess' or 'fullAccessRight' in the reports-column-center.jsp file, and 'fullAccess' in the SystemEvent.jsp file. The resulting exploitation could potentially lead to unauthorized report generation and alert alterations, posing significant security risks.
