Discussion

Mahara Multiple Unspecified Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

Mahara is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

Attacker-supplied HTML or JavaScript code could run in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials; other attacks are also possible.

Versions prior to Mahara 1.0.12 and 1.1.5 are vulnerable.
