VMware WebAccess JSON Cross-site Scripting Vulnerabliity

VMware WebAccess is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

VMware Server 2.0 is affected.

This issue was originally published as part of BID 39037 (VMware WebAccess Multiple Vulnerabilities). It is being assigned a new BID to better document the issue.
