DESCRIPTION:
AutoSec Tools has discovered a vulnerability in Dolphin, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.
Input passed via the "explain" parameter to explanation.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 context of an affected site.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 7.0.5. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
