Description Tomáš Nováčik 2013-08-19 15:05:50 UTC

It was found that cumin did not properly escape input from the "Max allowance" field in the "Set limit" form of the cumin web interface. A remote attacker could use this flaw to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks against victims by tricking them into visiting a specially crafted URL.
