DESCRIPTION:

the "target" parameter (version 3.4.05) in setup.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.
The vulnerability is reported in version 3.4.06. Other versions may
also be affected.
