DESCRIPTION:

exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed to the "message" parameter in index.php isn't properly

execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of a vulnerable site.

It is also possible to disclosure path information via invalid input
to the "VDNS_Sessid" parameter.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 0.9.9 and also
