CacheOS Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

CacheOS is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. An attacker can construct a link for a nonexistant subdomain of a valid site, and include malicious JavaScript. If followed, the supplied script code will execute within the context of the requested domain.

Mitigation:

CacheFlow has released a patch to address this issue.
