Problem Note 17592: Possible cross-site scripting issue in Preferences area of the Information Delivery Portal

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

When using a cross-site scripting tool to check for possible security risks in the Preferences application of the Information Delivery Portal, a flag may be triggered. This flag will only occur if a value for the category supplied for the preference category is not a number. If using a script, the script is used in place of the number. In this case, an error will occur and the value that was not a number will be displayed in the browser. Displaying this value is a problem.
