The remote host is running PHP Code Snippet Library (PHP-CSL), a library
written in PHP.
The remote version of this software is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting
attack.
An attacker can exploit it by compromising the values of the parameter
cat_select in index.php.
This can be used to take advantage of the trust between a client and server
allowing the malicious user to execute malicious JavaScript on
the client's machine.
Solution : Upgrade to the latest version of this software
