Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Apache, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

Input passed to mod_proxy_ftp via an URL containing a FTP wildcard character (e.g. "*"), is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

The vulnerability is reported in versions 2.0.63 and 2.2.9. Other versions may also be affected.
