Invision Power Board is reported prone to an HTML injection vulnerability. This issue arises due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data.

It is reported that due to a lack of filtering of HTML tags, an attacker can inject an IFRAME through an HTTP POST request.

All version of Invision Power Board are considered vulnerable at the moment.
