Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in XOOPS 2.5.1.a, and possibly earlier versions, allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) text parameter to include/formdhtmltextarea_preview.php or (2) img BBCODE tag within the message parameter to pmlite.php (aka Private Message).

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2011-4565 describes multiple cross-site scripting issues in XOOPS 2.5.1.a, possibly earlier. An attacker could inject script or HTML through message preview or private-message inputs, affecting users who view the malicious content. Public sources do not provide a CVSS score or confirmed active exploitation. Exposure is most likely on internet-accessible XOOPS sites running 2.5.1.a or possibly earlier versions, especially where private messaging or rich-text preview functionality is enabled. Treat this as a moderate legacy web-application risk. It is not currently KEV-listed, but exposed outdated XOOPS sites can create user-session and trust impacts if malicious content is viewed. Mitigation focus: Inventory any XOOPS deployments and confirm exact versions.; Check XOOPS vendor guidance for fixed versions or official remediation.; Prioritize upgrade or retirement of XOOPS 2.5.1.a and earlier installations..
