The only information we got was a link to XSS FAQ. Our internal testing did not reveal any security holes. We resolved all claims in this advisory as bogus - they don't contain enough information to be of any value. There are no known and verified security vulnerabilites in Kerio MailServer 5 that would be known to us. Jaroslav Snajdr Kerio MailServer Development Team Kerio Technologies
