OmniHTTPd test.php Cross-Site Scripting Issue

[full-disclosure () lists netsys com (Matthew Murphy)]

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.

"The reason the mainstream is thought
of as a stream is because it is
so shallow."
