http://secunia.com/advisories/37525/

DESCRIPTION:
andresg888 has discovered a vulnerability in YJ Whois module for
Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.

index.php (when form field "top_com" is set to "on" and "submitBtn"
is set to "Check") is not properly sanitised before being returned to
the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script
