Description Jean-François Brunette (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-08-09 13:50:36 UTC
Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in XOOPS, which can be exploited by
malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or compromise a vulnerable
system.

The vulnerabilities are caused due to vulnerable versions of PHPMailer and
XML-RPC being used.

Solution:
Update to version 2.2.1.
