The remote host runs PWSPHP (Portail Web System) a CMS written in PHP.
The remote version of this software is vulnerable to cross-site scripting attack due to a lack of sanity checks on the βskinβ parameter in the script SettingsBase.php.
With a specially crafted URL, an attacker could use the remote server to set up a cross-site scripting attack.
