A cross-site scripting vulnerability in the "Kiwix" zim file reader was
discovered by Emmanuel Engelhart on 31 October 2014, and was reported on
Sourceforge here: http://sourceforge.net/p/
This vulnerability does not affect most users of the program, only those
using the "kiwix-serve" binary to allow zim files to be read over a network.
Input to the search bar was not sanitised, thus allowing arbitrary
javascript code to be sent via servers running this program.
