From dc50cf38c11ad845115bae35d2dc8a7e9c4893ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kai Blin Date: Thu, 7 Jul 2011 10:03:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] s3 swat: Fix possible XSS attack (bug #8289) Nobuhiro Tsuji of NTT DATA SECURITY CORPORATION reported a possible XSS attack against SWAT, the Samba Web Administration Tool. The attack uses reflection to insert arbitrary content into the "change password" page. This patch fixes the reflection issue by not printing user-specified content on the website anymore.
