Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in IBM Lotus Quickr, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

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 Lotus Quickr 8.1 and 8.0.0.2. Other versions may also be affected.
