Not reference, not white paper, not tool. I am talking about the real
internet, where things aren't talked about but actually happen.
Hackers have been using methods similar to this for years, it's about
time a white-hat discovered this.

Re: security contact for uat.edu needed

to the liveperson.net robots that are not having these problems.

The XSS used is not a simple <script>alert(foo.bar) thingy, it's  
slightly more complicated.

If some of you are able to contact a whitehat over there then please  
let them contact me if
they need more information, I am not wasting money calling abroad for  
something that is not a problem for me. A university tricking  
students to graduate in security should be
able to secure their own sites.
