Invision Power Board (IP.Board) 1.3 - 'SSI.php' Cross-Site Scripting

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10539/info

Invision Power Board 'ssi.php' script reported prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability. The issue presents itself due to a lack of sufficient sanitization performed by functions in the 'ssi.php' script on user-influenced 'f' parameter. This can permit the theft of cookie-based authentication credentials; other attacks may also be possible.
