Input passed to the "ti", "bi", and "cbgi" parameters in cl_files/index.php when adding an event isn't properly sanitised before being used. 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. Successful exploitation requires privileges to add events. The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.5.1. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised. NOTE: The vulnerabilities have been inadequately fixed by only filtering the "script" tag.
