The remote host is affected by a cross site scripting vulnerability.

Description

Dell EMC iDRAC9 versions prior to 4.32.10.00 and 4.40.00.00 contain a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the iDRAC9 web application. A remote attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability to run malicious HTML or JavaScript in a victim’s browser by tricking a victim in to following a specially crafted link.
