This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 4.0.7. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised. Do not follow links from untrusted sources.
