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

Input passed via the "pageTitle" parameter to header.php 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.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3. Other versions may also
be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
