This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in the context of an affected site. 2) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to verify the requests. This can be exploited to perform certain administrative actions by tricking the administrator into visiting a malicious web site. These vulnerabilities are reported in mvnForum version 1.2 GA and prior. SOLUTION: Update to version 1.2.1 GA.
