DESCRIPTION:
Pouya_Server has reported a vulnerability in COMS, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.
Input passed to the "q" parameter in dynamic.php (when "sys" is set
to "search") 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 the context of an affected site.
