Description Murray McAllister 2014-06-17 06:13:40 UTC

A cross-site scripting flaw was found in ntop's rrdPlugin plug-in. An attacker could use this flaw to perform cross-site scripting attacks against users of the ntop web interface.

Original report: http://packetstormsecurity.com/files/127043/ntop-xss.txt

The issue seems to be both with content inside the <title> tags, and any trailing content afterwards.

The 5.0.7 version in Fedora 20 is definitely affected. I have not tested the 3.3.9 version in EPEL 5.
