Two cross-site scripting (XSS) flaws were corrected in Gallery 3.0.7 version: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- A) XSS by generating error messages due improper escaping of certain element values: A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the way Gallery, an open source project with the goal to develop and support leading photo sharing web application solutions, performed sanitization of certain argument values when generating error messages. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted web page that, when visited by the Gallery user with the administrator privilege, would lead to arbitrary HTML or web script execution in the context of particular Gallery user's session.
