This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site. 2) A vulnerability is caused due to users being able to change their signature in a format that should not be accessible to them. If the administrator changed the comment style to a more powerful format, this can be exploited to e.g. conduct script insertion attacks and potentially inject and execute arbitrary PHP code. 3) A security issue is caused due to Drupal generating a page including URLs containing sensitive information (e.g. slightly incorrect username and password) after a failed login attempt of an anonymous user. If the user follows said URLs, this information could leak to other pages via the HTTP "referer" header. Note: If page caching is enabled, this can further be exploited to disclose the username and password by e.g. tricking an anonymous user into following a specially crafted URL.
