The only place I found in bugs that presents the sdesc field unescaped is on line 87 of report.php, where $row['sdesc'] should be htmlspecialchars($row['sdesc']).

This section of code gets presented to the submittor once they initially submit a bug report and bugs are found that appear similar to the one they're trying to submit.

Is this where you saw the problem?

yeap - thats the one

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the
end of next Sunday (CET) on pear.php.net.

In case this was a pear.php.net website problem, the change will show
up on the website in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PEAR better.
