Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Novell User Application and Novell Identity Manager Roles Based Provisioning Module, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion and cross-site scripting attacks.
1) Input passed via the "rtnaddr" attribute to ForgotPassword.jsf 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 an affected site.

3) Input passed via unspecified parameters to the portal 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 an affected site.
