In the meantime, I've asked the developer of wz_tooltip.js, and he
isn't aware of a security fix, either.  In a next step, I'm going to
ask the person who supplied the bug information to egroupware.

To me, it begins to look like an error on egroupware's part; they have
invented a security bug where none existed.
