The remote host contains a peer-to-peer search engine that is prone to cross-site scripting attacks. The remote version of this software is vulnerable to multiple cross-site scripting due to a lack of sanitization of user-supplied data. Successful exploitation of this issue may allow an attacker to use the remote server to perform an attack against a third-party user
