alireza hassani has discovered a vulnerability in Chipmunk Forum,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks.

Input passed to the "forumID" parameter in newtopic.php, quote.php,
index.php, and reply.php isn't 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 a vulnerable
site.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.3. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
