Xoops Viewtopic.php Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

It has been reported that Xoops may be prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability that may allow a remote user to execute HTML or script code in a user's browser. HTML and script code may be parsed via the 'topic_id' and 'forum' URI parameters of 'newbb/viewtopic.php' script.

Successful exploitation of this attack may allow an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials. Other attacks are also possible.

Xoops versions 2.x have been reported to be prone to this issue.
