Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in AWStats Totals, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or scripting code.

The first issue is caused by input validation errors when processing the "month" and "year" parameters, which could be exploited by attackers to cause malicious scripting code to be executed by the user's browser.

The second vulnerability is caused by an input validation error in the "multisort()" function when processing the "sort" parameter, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code with the privileges of the web server.
