Description

 Novell GroupWise WebAccess contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate e-mail message upon submission to the dynamically generated web content. This could allow a user to send a specially crafted e-mail 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.
