I want to share some of our thoughts on Skype security. 
I will try to be short: Skype has a feature, which allows user to insert a
video into his mood - video selection is done through skype partners and is
based on regular WEB functionality. 
So this feature practically inherits WEB's problems - in this particular
case it's XSS attacks.

This is actually an exploitable Cross-Zone Scripting vulnerability.
