Id	Description
40263	Apache HTTP Server mod_proxy_balancer balancer-manager Multiple Parameter XSS Apache HTTP Server contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists in mod_proxy_balancer because the application does not validate the ss, wr, and rr variables, as well as other contents in the URL, upon submission to the balancer-manager. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
