DESCRIPTION:
CWH Underground has reported some vulnerabilities in phpFreeForum,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks.

Input passed to the "message" parameter in error.php and the
"nickname" and "randomid" parameters in part/menu.php is not properly
sanitised before being returned to a user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.0 RC2. Other versions
may also be affected.

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