There is a reported vulnerability in the Myads module. Both the Alumni and the Jobs modules were originally created from the myads module. Both modules also have this vulnerability, all versions. However I have fixed both modules acording to zyspec's fix in This Xoops Forum you can either apply his fix manually or you can update the modules with the new versions Jobs 2.4 and Alumni 2.2 but they MUST be fixed.

What's this hack all about ?
XOOPS Multilanguages is a heavily hacked version of XOOPS allowing the implementation of multilingual XOOPS sites.
XOOPS Multilanguages has 2 main functionnalities. First, it allows the user to easily change the language of the site. A Select your language block is provided with this package but you can also adapt your site theme (as this site did : look at the top right corner of the site !).
The second functionnality is the Language Tags. This is what will make the content of the site multilingual. It works as any other Xoops Code, ie with brackets [], and in nearly every text area !
When language tags are used, the site will only return the content placed inside the language tags of the selected language.
Marquee is a Xoops module wich enable you to have blocks containing information on the form of scrolling text. Texts can scroll from right to left and from top to bottom. This new version, whose code was completly rewrited, brings many new features.
