Input passed via the "full name" is not properly sanitised before being used in the "Confirm unsubscription request", "Confirm change of email address request", and "Re-enable mailing list membership" pages. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious data is being viewed. The vulnerabilities are reported in version 2.1.14. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Apply patch.
