Discussion
Phoenix View CMS 'admin_frame.php' Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
Phoenix View CMS is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
Phoenix View CMS Pre Alpha2 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
UPDATE (June 2, 2008): The vendor reports that the application is not vulnerable to the issue, but this has not been confirmed.
