This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in 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 e.g. upload arbitrary files to an FTP server when a logged in FTP user is tricked into visiting a malicious web page. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 0.97. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not browse untrusted web sites while being logged in. Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
