> Currently HTML tags are filtered from forum messages by client side javascript (whyzzywig.js). If JavaScript is turned off (or local webproxy is used to filter or change the script), then user can post a forum message containing any HTML code, including <script> tags, e.g. <script>alert('test');</script>
> This is classic cross site scripting problem with all the consequences (e.g. writing scripts to steal active cookies).
> Also, currently a lot is supplied as hidden fields, which probably means that user could change that text. I have not checked that, but as there are fields like dataResourceTypeId, contentTypeId then probably user can create any type of content.
