DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Liferay Portal, which
can be exploited by malicious users to disclose potentially sensitive
information, conduct cross-site scripting and script insertion
attacks, and potentially compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the XSL Content Portlet is not properly verified
before being used to display files. This can be exploited to disclose
the contents of arbitrary XSL and XML files via the "file:///" path.

2) Certain unspecified input 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.

3) Input passed via the title when creating a new message on the
message board is not properly sanitised before being displayed on the
search results page. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML
and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session
in context of an affected site when the malicious data is being
viewed.

4) Certain unspecified input is not properly sanitised before being
used by the XSL Content Portlet. This can be exploited to inject and
execute arbitrary JSP code.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 6.0.6.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 6.0.6.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported by the following people in a bug report:
1) Jonas Choi
2) Kristoffer Onias
3) Amos Fong
