Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ATutor versions 1.5.5 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML, potentially leading to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This can be achieved through attributes such as style and onmouseover in forum posts or mail, or via the website field of the user profile.

Recommendations For ATutor versions 1.5.5 and earlier, update to a version later than 1.5.5 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting user input in the website field of the profile and limiting the use of attributes like style and onmouseover in forum posts and mail until a patch is available.
