------
DESCRIPTION:
------
i'm working now in nuke based portals , searching modules that use an URL 
based query i found in the Statistics module some bugs:
when you put a string in the url behind the &year variable the module 
prints you the character that you put.
i probe iframe and works , script tags works , object works,applet 
works,meta works,style works,form works too,img works,comments and ssi 
works.
--------
SOLUTION:
--------
Put this code in your mainfile.php :
/*
foreach ($HTTP_GET_VARS as $secvalue) {
    if ((eregi("<[^>]*script*\"?[^>]*>", $secvalue)) ||
	(eregi("<[^>]*object*\"?[^>]*>", $secvalue)) ||
	(eregi("<[^>]*iframe*\"?[^>]*>", $secvalue)) ||
	(eregi("<[^>]*applet*\"?[^>]*>", $secvalue)) ||
	(eregi("<[^>]*meta*\"?[^>]*>", $secvalue)) ||
	(eregi("<[^>]*style*\"?[^>]*>", $secvalue)) ||
	(eregi("<[^>]*form*\"?[^>]*>", $secvalue)) ||
	(eregi("<[^>]*img*\"?[^>]*>", $secvalue)) ||
	(eregi("\"", $secvalue))) {
	die ("Oh! .");
    }
}
*/
NOTE: Remove comment /* and */.
-----
WHAT CAN BE HAPPEN?
-----
Script and binary objects inclusion. Normally it isn't a problem but 
there are many viruses written in vbscript and javascript/JS . Iframe can 
be used for a link that an user visits and there is and attack to the 
user trough known iframe vulns.
With the code that i provide your'e sure by this little bug.
