Impact: attackers could execute XSS attacks that can harvest session cookies and usernames/passwords. ================= Technical Details ================= The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to verify the request. Input is not properly sanitized before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session. =============== Fix Information =============== This issue has now been resolved.
