DESCRIPTION:
Sony has discovered a vulnerability in Nimbuzz, which can be
exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks.

Input passed to the chat is not properly sanitised before being used.
This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which
will be executed when the malicious data is being viewed using the
"View in browser" feature.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.2.0. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Don't use the "View in browser" feature to view the chat history from
untrusted contacts.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Sony
