OmniHTTPd test.php Cross-Site Scripting Issue

A vulnerability exists in the test.php script of OmniHTTPd. The script makes a classic coding error -- trusting unsanitized user input. The query string and cookie values are returned unfiltered. Of most concern, of course, is the query string: http://localhost/test.php?%3CSCRIPT%3Ealert%28document.URL%29%3C%2FSCRIPT%3E =x The impact of this vulnerability will vary by site. A production site would most likely *not* have the sample scripts installed, but it would be wise to check.
