There is some discussion of RSS feed vulnerabilities here:

I don't know enough to comment, but thought some here might be interested.

Hi!

Thanks for posting this. Serendipity does all we can to escape comment input, so this should not be a problem. But of course the owner of a blog is responsible for the good or bad code he puts into his articles.

However any decent RSS reader should definitely deactivate JS in RSS feeds.

Best regards,
Garvin
