Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in HTML Purifier before 4.1.1, as used in Mahara and other products, when the browser is Internet Explorer, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2010-2479)

Both Moodle and Sahana contain embedded copies of HTML Purifier and need to be updated.

Sahana is still affected by this flaw in Fedora.  Could this be fixed please?  This issue is quite old.
