  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"The flaws are due to:

  - Certain input passed to the 'MNET' access control interface is not properly
  sanitised before being used.

  - Improper validation of user supplied data to the 'blog/index.php' page,
  which allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via
  unspecified parameters.

  - Error in 'KSES text cleaning filter' in 'lib/weblib.php' which fails to
  properly handle 'vbscript URIs', which allows remote authenticated users
  to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via HTML input.

  - Allowing users to perform certain actions via 'HTTP requests' without
  performing any validity checks to verify the requests. This can be
  exploited to delete certain quiz reports by tricking a user into visiting
  a specially crafted site.");
