Kousuke Ebihara discovered that redcloth, a Ruby module used to convert Textile markup to HTML, did not properly sanitize its input.
This allowed a remote attacker to perform a cross-site scripting attack by injecting arbitrary JavaScript code into the generated HTML.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
