CVE-2010-2480 Information

Description

Mako before 0.3.4 relies on the cgi.escape function in the Python standard library for cross-site scripting (XSS) protection which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct XSS attacks via vectors involving single-quote characters and a JavaScript onLoad event handler for a BODY element.
