DESCRIPTION:
Alexander Kornbrust has reported a vulnerability in BEA WebLogic,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks.

Input passed to the "server" parameter in
"console/actions/jndi/JndiFramesetAction" accessible via the
administration console 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 8.1. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not follow links from untrusted sources while being logged in to
the administration console.
