Hello Andres,

My W3AF scans have found XSS vulnerability on a few Web servers.  However, 
after searching online and on 
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=w3af-users&source=navbar
 I can't find any clear cut explanation of what fix to implement to counter the 
discovered vulnerability.  In the past I had to run typical google searches on 
how to tackle each issue but I was hoping that maybe by now there may be 
something like a "vulnerability/proposed solution" guide somewhere that I can 
reference?

If there isn't a guide could you help me understand how to deal with the 
following security hole?

Here are some excerpts from the post scan logs:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Thu 07 Mar 2013 01:41:02 PM EST] The following scripts allow an attacker to 
send POST data as query string data (this makes XSRF easier to exploit):
[Thu 07 Mar 2013 01:41:02 PM EST] - The URL: http://xx.xx.xx.xx/login.aspx is 
vulnerable to cross-site request forgery. It allows the attacker to exchange 
the method from POST to GET when sendin data to the server.
