    Subject: XSS Hole in Fluid Dynamics Search engine
    
    
    Name :		FD Search Engine
    Vendor : 	Fluid Dynamics - http://www.xav.com
    Version :	Probably all
    Demo :		http://www.xav.com/search.pl
    
    Note :	Sorry for my poor english ...
    -------------------------------------
    
    
    
    PROBLEM
    	For a multiple result pages search, the script uses the variable
    Rank wich 
    contains current result number.
    	Anything could be written into, including HTML tags.
    
    
    EXEMPLE
    	
    http://www.xav.com/search.pl?Realm=All&Match=0&Terms=test&nocpp=1&maxhit
    s=10&
    Rank=<br><h1>XSS</h1>
    	Note : it works because "test" returns several pages.
    
    SOLUTION
    	None yet.
