The DNews News Server is advanced news server software that makes it easy for 
you to 
provide users with fast access to Internet (Usenet) news groups. Installing 
your own l
ocal news server software also gives you complete control to create your own 
private 
or public discussion forums for enhanced communications across the organization 
and 
Internet. DNews fails to sanitize supplied input, attackers may exploit this 
issue 
via a web client. An attacker may leverage this issue to have arbitrary script 
code 
execute in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected 
site. 
This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and 
launch 
other attacks.
