N.T. index.php username Variable XSS
Posted on 05 April 2006

Vulnerability Description

This flaw exists because the application does not validate the 'username'
variable upon submission to the index.php script. This could allow a
user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code
in an administrator's browser when the "Login Log" page is viewed, leading
to a loss of integrity.
