Description

 cPanel contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate input passed in the message field upon submission to the Entropy Chat script. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted chat message that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
