DESCRIPTION:
Stefan Schurtz has discovered some vulnerabilities in ATutor, which
can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed via the URL after login.php, search.php,
password_reminder.php, browse.php, registration.php, or about.php and
via the URL after themes/default/tile_search/index.tmpl.php and
themes/default/social/basic_profile.tmpl.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 vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.0.3. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
