Input passed to the "nickname" and "color" parameters in input.php is not properly sanitised before being stored and used. 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 malicious data is viewed. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised. Use another product.
