DESCRIPTION:
r0t has discovered some vulnerabilities in Helm Web Hosting Control
Panel, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.
Input passed to the "txtDomainName" parameter in "domains.asp" and to
the "SearchText" and "UserLevel" parameters in
"<path_to_online_help>/default.asp" is not 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.
Exploitation is possible with any ("user", "reseller" and "admin")
access level.
The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 3.2.10. Other
version may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
