The Register reported on its website that cross-site scripting (XSS) security flaws were exploited by cheeky crackers to inject listings from Pirate Bay to the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) websites.

The result is that links from a controversial torrent site The Pirate Bay are listed under the MPAA’s recommended list of sites.

Vektor who is a member of a group of hackers called Team Elite notes that the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) is also vulnerable to similar flaws.
