Vulnerability:
----------------------------------------------
I found a bug in the searchField of the official Palm
store("http://store.palm.com/";).
Input passed to the "keywords" parameter in "index.jsp" 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.
Sending a malicious code will result a code working on the page that pops up...
/searchHandler/index.jsp?keywords=[XSS CODE HERE]
Examples:
----------------------------------------------
/searchHandler/index.jsp?keywords=<script>alert("MajorSecurity")</script>
/searchHandler/index.jsp?keywords=3Cscript%3Ealert(document.cookie)%3C/script%3E
