2.2.2007 Ilhan Gurel: This originally comes from the following reported vulnerability:
http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-0478
The link also has information about the proof of concept data. Description of the original problem: Apple Safari does not properly parse HTML comments, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and bypass some XSS protection schemes by embedding certain HTML tags within an HTML comment. It has been acklowledged that this is also valid issue for S60 browser as it uses same code.
