Discussion
Phorum Image Tag HTML Injection Vulnerability
Phorum is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would execute 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.
Phorum 5.2.8 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
