DESCRIPTION:
nnposter has reported some vulnerabilities in F5 FirePass, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed to the "css_exceptions" parameter in
/vdesk/admincon/webyfiers.php and to the "sql_matchscope" parameter
in /vdesk/admincon/index.php 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 the
administrative interface.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 6.0.2 hotfix 3. Other
