Insanely simple blog version 0.5 and below http://sourceforge.net/projects/insanelysimple2 ISB contains multple vulnerabilities including both XSS, and SQL injection. First off, the search action fails to strip user content for html allowing a user to input tags. Next, anonymous blog entries can contain javascript allowing script execution. How?

The sql injection can be prevented by making sure the variables are numeric.
