DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Pligg, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.
1) Input passed via the "reg_username", "reg_email", "reg_password",
and "reg_password2" parameters to register.php is not properly
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
the context of an affected site.
2) Certain input passed to search.php is not properly sanitised
before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute
arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in the
context of an affected site.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 1.1.3.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.1.3.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
