Summary
A vulnerability in the web framework of Cisco WebEx Meetings Server could
allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting
(XSS) attack against a user of the web interface of an affected system.

that are passed to the web server of the affected system. An attacker could
exploit this vulnerability by convincing a user to follow a malicious link or
