IBM Aspera Faspex 5.0.0 through 5.0.13.1 uses a cross-domain policy file that includes domains that should not be trusted.
Weakness
The product uses a web-client protection mechanism such as a Content Security Policy (CSP) or cross-domain policy file, but the policy includes untrusted domains with which the web client is allowed to communicate.

Extended Description
If a cross-domain policy file includes domains that should not be trusted, such as when using wildcards under a high-level domain, then the application could be attacked by these untrusted domains. In many cases, the attack can be launched without the victim even being aware of it.
