DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in ProjectForge, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.
Input passed to the "Maximum Hours" field when adding a new task is
not properly sanitised before it is used in validation error messages
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.
Successful exploitation requires that the attacker can guess the
correct "wicket:interface" parameter.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.5.2. Prior versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 3.5.3.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported to the vendor by Paul Davis.
