VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/19544/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
Basic Analysis and Security Engine (BASE) 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/5984/

DESCRIPTION:
Adam Ely has reported a vulnerability in Basic Analysis and Security
Engine, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.

Input passed to the URL in various scripts calling the
"PrintFreshPage()" function isn't properly sanitised before being
returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML
and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected
site.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.2.4. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
