This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious user data is viewed. 2) An error in the access control verification can be exploited by a normal user to access administrative modules (e.g. the settings section) by accessing certain URLs directly. The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 4.2.4. Use another product.
