Description: 

Various Orion application application server example pages are vulnerable to 
XSS. Orion application server is a java based web application server,

browser of a user who clicks on a link to a Orion Application server site. Such 
code would run within the security context of the target domain. This type of

redirection of confidential information (i.e.: session IDs) to unauthorised 
third parties.
