Blackboard products are prone to multiple HTML-injection vulnerabilities because the software fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.

Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would execute in the context of the affected website, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.

Blackboard Learning System (Release 6) and Blackboard Learning and Community Portal Suite (Release 6 build 6.2.3.23) are vulnerable; other version may also be affected.

Reports indicate this issue has been addressed in versions 7.0 and 7.1, but Symantec has not confirmed this.

UPDATE (June 14, 2007): Reports indicate that Blackboard Academic Suite - Vista 4 is also vulnerable.
