Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in 2005-Comments-Script, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and script insertion attacks.

2) Input passed to the "email" and "url" parameters in kommentar.php is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which is executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when malicious data is viewed.
