Author: Gerendi Sandor Attila
Date: April 29, 2009

Advisory: 
http://gsasec.blogspot.com/2009/04/coppermine-photo-gallery-1421-cross.html
Severity: Medium

Input passed to the 'css' parameter from '/docs/showdoc.php' is not sanitized 
before it is returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary 
HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Example:

http://somehost/docs/showdoc.php?css=1>">alert(123)%3B

The vendor already released a security release which fixes the issue, read at:
