Description

Squiz Matrix contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the 'am_section', 'assetid', 'sq_asset_path', 'sq_backend_log_type', 'sq_link_path', 'asset_ei_screen', 'current_assetid', and 'tool_reindex_reindexing_root_assetid' parameters upon submission to the _admin/ script. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted request that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
