Description Vincent Danen 2010-03-22 17:03:20 UTC
An XSS flaw was reported in the phpCAS library [1], where it would not properly sanitize the submitted URL before displaying it on the error page.  This could allow an attacker to insert scripts or other malicious content on the error page.

Both Moodle and gpli embedd the phpCAS library.  The Moodle developers are currently testing the upstream patch for regressions [2] (the bug is currently private).  The upstream bug report has a patch to correct this issue attached.

I'd really love to patch Moodle, but my Moodle Jira login lacks the requisite permissions.  I've emailed their Jira admins for assistance.
