The password change feature (admin/cp.php) in VideoScript 4.0.1.50 and earlier does not check for administrative authentication and does not require knowledge of the original password, which allows remote attackers to change the admin account password via modified npass and npass1 parameters.

Weakness

When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct.
