The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error in the processing of the content tag in RSS feeds. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a local context by tricking a user into adding a malicious RSS feed and then viewing the content of it. The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.3.6. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not add RSS feeds from untrusted sources.
