SA-CONTRIB-2012-144 Fonecta verify - Cross Site Scripting (XSS)

Fonecta verify provides an interface to retrieve information from the Finnish Fonecta company information database. The module contains an arbitrary script injection vulnerability (XSS) due to the fact that it fails to sanitize data retrieved from an untrusted third party source.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have either gained access to that third party source or use techniques such as DNS spoofing in order to inject malicious data.
