Antonio Parata and Francesco Ongaro reported a Cross-Site Request
Forgery vulnerability in manage_user_create.php (CVE-2008-2276), a
Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in return_dynamic_filters.php
(CVE-2008-3331), and an insufficient input validation in
adm_config_set.php (CVE-2008-3332). A directory traversal vulnerability
in core/lang_api.php (CVE-2008-3333) has also been reported.
