Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in BirdBlog, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks.
Input passed in BB code isn't properly sanitised before being used. This may be exploited to inject arbitrary JavaScript code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious user data is viewed.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.3.0. Prior versions may also be affected.
NOTE: This was originally fixed in version 1.3.1. However, it is reportedly potentially possible to bypass the fix via exploitation in the "[url]" tag.
Solution:
Update to version 1.3.3.
