Discussion
Matt Wright FormMail HTTP Response Splitting and Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities
FormMail is prone to an HTTP-response-splitting vulnerability and multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
An attacker may leverage these issues to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user, steal cookie-based authentication credentials, and influence how web content is served, cached, or interpreted. This could aid in various attacks that try to entice client users into a false sense of trust.
These issues affect FormMail 1.92; prior versions may also be affected.
