  - CVE-2006-7191
    An untrusted PATH vulnerability could allow a local

    privileges by providing a malicious rm executable and
    specifying a PATH environment variable referencing this
    executable.

  - CVE-2007-1840
    Improper escaping of HTML content could allow an
    attacker to execute a cross-site scripting attack (XSS)
    and execute arbitrary code in the victim's browser in
    the security context of the affected website."
