DESCRIPTION:
Khashayar Fereidani has discovered some vulnerabilities in Maian
Links, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.
Input passed to the "msg_script3" and "msg_script2" in
admin/inc/footer.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.
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.1. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
