vendor status: ?
problem: javascript can be injected into the /?rawURL= field...
ex: www.server.com/?rawURL=<script>javascript:alert();</script>
popups up a javascript alert...
could be hazardous.... example (alert pops up 100 times):
www.server.com/?rawURL=<script>javascript:for(var i = 0; i < 100; i++) alert();</script>
it filters out the character " by making it \" so having it do various things that you can usually do with javascript injection is a problem... yet this should be fixed nonetheless, and its a possibility the character " has a workaround...
thanks to wehack.com, as i was looking thrugh their site at advisories and came upon this product....
Thanks,
Josh Gilmour
