Description

CERN httpd contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate user-supplied input. By sending a specially crafted URL with a malicious script to a non-existent page, the resulting error page 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.
