DESCRIPTION:
Gjoko Krstic has discovered a vulnerability in Textpattern, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.
Input passed to the "q" parameter in index.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 the "Production Status" to be set to
"Debugging" or "Testing" (set by default).
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 4.2.0. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Ensure that "Production Status" is set to "Live".
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
