Description The issue allows remote attackers to use the VisitorBook as an open mail relay when $mailuser is 1, via extra headers in the email field. Additionally, it enables attackers to cause the guestbook database to be deleted via a large number of line breaks that exceeds the $max posts variable. This occurs because the software does not properly escape line breaks in input.
