Description
===========

Joxean Koret recently discovered multiple cross site scripting
vulnerabilities in various modules for the eGroupWare suite. This
includes the calendar, address book, messenger and ticket modules.

Impact

These vulnerabilities give an attacker the ability to inject and
execute malicious script code, potentially compromising the victim's
browser.

upgrade to the latest available version of eGroupWare.

Resolution
