Description

Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Usermin, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

Certain input related to popup windows 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 vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 1.600.


Solution:
Update to version 1.600.

Provided and/or discovered by:
Reported by the vendor.

@maintainer(s): since the package or the affected version has never been marked as stable, we don't need to stabilize it. After the bump, please remove the affected versions from the tree.
