TorrentTrader HTML-injection Vulnerability

TorrentTrader is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to adequately 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 to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.

Mitigation:

Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data does not include malicious HTML or script code.
