DESCRIPTION:
High-Tech Bridge SA has discovered a vulnerability in PivotX, which
can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed to the "file" parameter in ajaxhelper.php (when
"function" is set to "view") is not properly sanitised before being
returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML
and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected
site.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.3.2. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Fixed in the SVN repository.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
