"According to its firmware version, the remote Barracuda Spam Firewall
device fails to filter input to the 'email' parameter of the
'/cgi-bin/ldap_test.cgi' script before using it to generate dynamic
content.  An unauthenticated, remote attacker may be able to leverage
this issue to inject arbitrary HTML or script code into a user's
browser to be executed within the security context of the affected
site.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead
relied only on the application's self-reported firmware version.");
