Pligg is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities and a
cross-site request-forgery vulnerability.

An attacker can exploit these issues to steal cookie-based
authentication credentials or perform unauthorized actions when
masquerading as the victim. Other attacks are also possible.

Versions prior to Pligg 1.0.3 are vulnerable.
