HTML-injection vulnerability in SMF

SMF is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content. Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would execute in the context of the affected website, potentially allowing an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible. NOTE: To trigger this vulnerability, the attacker must log in with a valid account.

Mitigation:

Properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content. Ensure that input validation and output encoding is applied to prevent HTML-injection vulnerabilities.
