Discussion

Movable Type Multiple Unspecified HTML Injection Vulnerabilities

Movable Type is prone to multiple unspecified HTML-injection vulnerabilities because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

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