<background>
<p>
ht://Dig is an HTTP/HTML indexing and searching system.

<description>
<p>
Michael Krax discovered that ht://Dig fails to validate the
'config' parameter before displaying an error message containing the
parameter. This flaw could allow an attacker to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="low">
<p>
By sending a carefully crafted message, an attacker can inject and
execute script code in the victim's browser window. This allows to
modify the behaviour of ht://Dig, and/or leak session information such
as cookies to the attacker.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All ht://Dig users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-misc/htdig-3.1.6-r7"</code>
</resolution>
