Id Description
71059 Nagios cgi-bin/statusmap.cgi layer Parameter XSS

Nagios contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the 'layer' parameter upon submission to the cgi-bin/statusmap.cgi script. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
