Error description

  • CVEID:   CVE-2012-5920
DESCRIPTION:   Google Web Toolkit is vulnerable to cross-site
scripting, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input.

browser within the security context of the hosting Web site,
once the URL is clicked. An attacker could use this
vulnerability to steal the victim's cookie-based authentication
credentials. Note: This vulnerability is due to an incomplete
fix for CVE-2012-4563.
