Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks.

1) Some input passed via the "Remember Me" functionality and the "Related Items" module isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Some other security related issues have also been reported.
