Description

vBulletin newreply.php script contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not properly sanitize input passed to the "WYSIWYG_HTML" parameter prior to returning it to the user. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
