Description:
A vulnerability has been identified in AnalogX Proxy allowing malicious people to conduct Cross Site Scripting attacks.
The problem is that AnalogX returns the entire requested URL in error pages without prior sanitation. This allows malicious people to create URLs, which "inject" arbitrary HTML and script code.
Example:
http://[site]<script>evil_code</script>
The code will either be executed in the context of the non-existant domain "[site]<script>evil_code</script>" or "[site] depending on how the browser interprets the URL.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 4.14. However, prior versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Use another proxy.
