Description
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Ganglia, which can be exploited by malicious people 
to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

Input passed via multiple parameters and scripts is not properly sanitised before being returned to 
the user. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in 
a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious data is being viewed.
