Hscripts HGB Index.PHP HTML Injection Vulnerability

HGB from hscripts is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.

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

This issue affects HGB 3.1; other versions may also be vulnerable.
