Discussion
Nimbuzz 'View in browser' Feature HTML Injection Vulnerability
Nimbuzz is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to sanitize user-supplied input.
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 and control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.
Nimbuzz 2.2.0 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
