cross-site scripting attack." );

"The remote version of vBulletin is vulnerable to a cross-site
scripting issue due to a failure of the application to properly
sanitize user-supplied URI input.  As a result of this vulnerability,
it is possible for a remote attacker to create a malicious link
containing script code that will be executed in the browser of an
unsuspecting user when followed.  This may facilitate the theft of
cookie-based authentication credentials as well as other attacks." );
