DESCRIPTION:
Joshua Tiago has discovered a vulnerability in LimeSurvey, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion
attacks.

Input passed via certain text fields to surveys is not properly
sanitised before being used as tooltip when browsing survey results.
This can be exploited to insert HTML and script code, which will be
executed in an administrative user's browser session in context of an
affected site if malicious data is viewed.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.91+ Build 11343-20111108.
Prior versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.91+ Build 11379-20111116 or later.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Joshua Tiago, Cirosec via Secunia.
