    cross-site scripting attacks.

    A remote attacker could exploit this to inject and execute malicious
    script code or to steal cookie-based authentication credentials,
    potentially compromising the victim's browser.
    </p>
  </impact>

    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All TikiWiki users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-apps/tikiwiki-1.9.1.1&quot;</code>
    <p>
    Note: Users with the vhosts USE flag set should manually use
    webapp-config to finalize the update.
