Summary

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the Help Contents web application (aka the Help Server) in Eclipse IDE, possibly 3.3.2, allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the searchWord parameter to help/advanced/searchView.jsp or (2) the workingSet parameter in an add action to help/advanced/workingSetManager.jsp, a different issue than CVE-2010-4647.
