Joomla! FreiChat HTML Injection Vulnerability

Joomla! FreiChat component is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.Successful exploits will allow attacker-supplied HTML and script code to run in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible.

Mitigation:

Update to FreiChat version 2.1.2 or later.
