Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test

Synopsis :

The remote web server contains a PHP script that is susceptible to a
cross-site scripting attack.

Description :

The remote version of vBulletin is vulnerable to a cross-site
scripting issue due to a failure of the application to properly
sanitize user-supplied URI input.

As a result of this vulnerability, it is possible for a remote
attacker to create a malicious link containing script code that will
be executed in the browser of an unsuspecting user when followed.

This may facilitate the theft of cookie-based authentication
credentials as well as other attacks.
