Phorum Multiple BBCode HTML Injection Vulnerabilities

Summary
Phorum is prone to multiple HTML-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. 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. Versions prior to Phorum 5.2.12a are vulnerable.
