Description: trueend5 has reported a vulnerability in vBulletin, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks.
Input passed to the "title" field in "calendar.php" when adding a "Single, All Day", "Ranged", or "Recurring" event isn't properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious user data is viewed via the "Add Reminder" functionality (i.e. when visiting "calendar.php?do=addreminder&e=[eventid]").
The vulnerability has been reported in version 3.5.2 and prior.
Solution: Update to version 3.5.3.
