Description:
Russ McRee has reported some vulnerabilities in Tendenci CMS, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

Input passed to various parameters (e.g. "category","searchtext", "jobcategoryid, and "contactcompany") in search.asp is not properly santised before being returned to a user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Solution:
Contact the vendor for patches.

Reportedly, the vendor already applied patches to the hosted version of this product.
