Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Mahara, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks and by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
1) Input passed via the URL to e.g. htdocs/admin/users/changeuser.php is not properly sanitised in htdocs/auth/lib.php before being returned to the user after redirection to the login form. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.
2) Input passed via "Insert/Edit Image" within an Edit blog is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site if malicious data is viewed.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 1.5.2 and prior to 1.4.3.
