tag_summary = "Phorum is prone to multiple HTML-injection vulnerabilities because it
fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

Attacker-supplied HTML or JavaScript code could run in the context of
the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-
based authentication credentials and to control how the site is
rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.

Versions prior to Phorum 5.2.12a are vulnerable.";
