low Nessus Network Monitor Plugin ID 3052

Synopsis

The remote host is vulnerable to a Script Injection attack.

Description

The remote host is running the Lotus Notes email client. Lotus Notes client versions 6.5.4 and earlier could allow a remote attacker to inject HTML and JavaScript into email messages.
