DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Project EROS bbsengine,
one has an unknown impact, the others can be exploited by malicious
people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed in certain parameters is not properly sanitised in
"preparestring()" before being returned to the user. This can
potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in
a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

2) An error within the handling of remote images using the [img] tag
may be exploited with an unknown impact.

3) Input passed to certain parameters in php/comment.php and
php/aolbonics.php isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL
query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.
