The remote web server contains a CGI which is vulnerable to multiple cross site
scripting vulnerabilities.
Description :
The remote host is running the BookReview software.
The remote version of this software is vulnerable to multiple cross-site
scripting vulnerabilities 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.
