Description

Trac contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site redirection attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the "q" variable upon submission to the search script. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would allow malicious redirection in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
