Exponent CMS Multiple HTML Injection Vulnerabilities

Exponent CMS is prone to multiple HTML-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input data.

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

These issues affect Exponent CMS 0.97.0-alpha and all earlier versions.
