SSGbook HTML Injection Vulnerability
SSGbook includes codes for allowing users to specify HTML formatting and layout inside of guestbook entries. For example, a user can include an image by including it inside of [image] or [img] tags. However, arbitrary HTML and script code are not sufficiently sanitized within these tags. As a result, users may include malicious HTML and script code inside of guestbook entries. The attacker-supplied code will be rendered in the web client of a user who views a malicious guestbook entry.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data is properly sanitized.
