WebChat Database Username Disclosure Weakness
WebChat has been reported prone to a database username disclosure weakness. The issue presents itself when a malicious request is made for the WebChat ?users.php? page. An attacker may pass a guessed username as a specific URI parameter to the affected page. An attacker may exploit this weakness to enumerate database passwords.
Mitigation:
Ensure that the application is not vulnerable to username enumeration attacks. Implement access control mechanisms to restrict access to the application.
