DCP-Portal URI Parameter Script Code Execution Vulnerability

It has been reported that DCP-Portal does not sufficiently filter URI parameters supplied to the DCP-Portal 'calender' script. As a result of this deficiency, it is possible for a remote attacker to create a malicious link containing script code that will be executed in the browser of a legitimate user. All code will be executed within the context of the website running DCP-Portal. This may allow for theft of cookie-based authentication credentials and other attacks.

Mitigation:

Filter user input and validate all parameters supplied to the DCP-Portal 'calender' script.
