Vuln. description:

Web+ Shop contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attacks.
This flaw exists because input passed to "deptname" parameter isn't
properly sanitised before being returned to the user.
This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would
execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust
relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of
integrity.

example:

http://host.com/cgi-bin/webplus.exe?script=/webpshop/
department.wml&deptid=3&deptname=[XSS]

###############################################
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
