Id Description
78254 SimpleSAMLphp module.php/core/no_cookie.php retryURL Parameter XSS

SimpleSAMLphp contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the 'retryURL' parameter upon submission to the module.php/core/no_cookie.php 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.
