Several vulnerabilities were discovered in mahara, an electronic portfolio, weblog, and resume builder. The following Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project ids identify them :
CVE-2010-1667 Multiple pages performed insufficient input sanitising, making them vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks.
CVE-2010-1668 Multiple forms lacked protection against cross-site request forgery attacks, therefore making them vulnerable.
CVE-2010-1670 Gregor Anzelj discovered that it was possible to accidentally configure an installation of mahara that allows access to another user’s account without a password.
CVE-2010-2479 Certain Internet Explorer-specific cross-site scripting vulnerabilities were discovered in HTML Purifier, of which a copy is included in the mahara package.
