Monkey HTTP Server Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability
Monkey HTTP server is prone to cross site scripting vulnerabilities. An attacker may exploit this vulnerability by enticing a victim user to follow a malicious link. Attacker-supplied HTML and script code may be executed on a web client visiting the malicious link in the context of the webserver. Attackers may potentially exploit this issue to manipulate web content or to steal cookie-based authentication credentials. It may be possible to take arbitrary actions as the victim user.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to prevent malicious HTML and script code from being executed.
