IMP common-footer.inc Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary
Checks for cross-site scripting vulnerability in IMP common-footer.inc
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Synopsis :
The remote web server contains a PHP script that is prone to a cross-
site scripting attack.
Description :
According to its version, the remote installation of IMP fails to fully
sanitize user-supplied input when setting the parent frame's page title
by javascript in 'templates/common-footer.inc'. By leveraging this
flaw, a possible hacker may be able to inject arbitrary HTML and script code
into a user's browser to be executed in the context of the affected web
site, thereby resulting in the theft of session cookies and similar
attacks.
