http://secunia.com/advisories/16365/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Chipmunk Forum 1.x

DESCRIPTION:
rgod has discovered a vulnerability in Chipmunk, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed to the "fontcolor" parameter in index.php isn't properly
sanitised before being returned to users. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of a vulnerable site.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.3. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
