###############################################
Vuln. description
SiteSearch Indexer contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting
attack. This flaw exists because input passed to "searchField" paremeter in
"searchresults.asp" isn't properly sanitised before being returned to the
user.
This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute
arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the
browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
example:
/search/searchresults.asp?searchField=[XSS]
###############################################
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
