DESCRIPTION:
d4igoro has discovered some vulnerabilities in Manila, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed to the "mode" parameter in "discuss/msgReader" and input
passed to "newsItems/viewDepartment" is not properly sanitised before
being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute
arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context
of an affected site.

Examples:
http://[host]/discuss/msgReader$1?mode=[code]
http://[host]/newsItems/viewDepartment$[code]

The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 9.5 using the
built-in web server. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Filter malicious characters and character sequences in a proxy server
or firewall with URL filtering capabilities.
