Solution:
=========
The vulnerability can be patched by parsing the search string input field and result output (listing) web context.


Risk:
=====
The security risk of the remote command execution vulnerability is estimated as high(+).

Given the required user interaction and privileged local system account and other operational dependancies, by what 
means did you estimate a "high" risk?   I guess the basic question would be "how do you even classify this as a risk" 
in the first place.   Do you have some system of calculating risk or is it just a "gut feeling" type classification?
