What is CVE-2007-1085?

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Google Desktop enables remote attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML on user systems. This is achieved by exploiting an XSS flaw in google.com that allows attackers to extract the internal web server's signature. By manipulating the 'under' parameter in an Advanced Search, attackers can successfully bypass protective measures, potentially leading to unauthorized access to user systems.
