Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Cisco IOS allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML, and execute IOS commands, via unspecified vectors, aka PSIRT-2022590358. NOTE: as of 20071016, the only disclosure is a vague pre-advisory with no actionable information. However, since it is from a well-known researcher, it is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.
