Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability in Gattaca Server 2003

A remote attacker can exploit this issue by creating a malicious link to the vulnerable application that includes hostile HTML and script code. If a user follows this link, the hostile code renders in the web browser of the victim user. This would occur in the security context of the web server and may allow for theft of cookie-based authentication credentials or other attacks.

Mitigation:

Implement input validation and sanitization techniques to filter user-supplied data and prevent the execution of malicious code.
