Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Sticky Notes versions prior to 0.2.27052012.5

Description The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML. This can be achieved via the paste user or paste lang parameter to "list.php" or "show.php" API endpoints.

Recommendations For versions prior to 0.2.27052012.5, update to version 0.2.27052012.5 or later to resolve the issue.
