Summary: User interface allows XSS

Initial Comment:
Some attributes/values are vulnerable to cross site scripting when being 
displayed in the HTML view mode.
Input from the LDAP should be sanitized before it is used in HTML code to 
display in HTML view.
I am not sure how clever the HTML view widget is and how much it would be 
possible to misuse this vulnerability.

On attached screenshot the value of attribute postaladdress contains attempt to 
inject javascript.
The java script is not executed, but it deforms the presented page which means 
it is processed somehow.

Message:
The standard java HTML pane is used, and it's not capable of executing
scripts.  I suppose someone could put a dodgy link in, but even then the
html browser is extremely limited.  Unless I can be shown a clear security
risk here I don't think it's worth the effort (and performance hit) to
parse text for XSS.
