Lotus Notes contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the subject of an email upon displaying it to the user. This could allow an attacker to create a specially crafted file name 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.
