DESCRIPTION:
r0t has reported a vulnerability in the vBug Tracker module for
vBulletin, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.

Input passed to the "sortorder" parameter in vbugs.php is not
properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be
exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's
browser session in context of an affected site.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 3.5.1. Other versions
may also be affected.
