Fusebox index.cfm fuseaction Parameter XSS
medium Nessus Plugin ID 19383
Language:
Synopsis
The remote web server contains an application that is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting attack.Description
The remote host is running Fusebox, a framework for building web-based applications in Cold Fusion and PHP.The installed web application appears to have been created using Fusebox in such a way that it fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'fuseaction' parameter before using it in dynamically-generated webpages.
Note that this flaw may not be specific to the Fusebox framework, per se, but instead be an implementation issue since Fusebox itself does not generate any HTML, but lets the developer control all output.
Solution
