---- Hackers Exploiting Canonical Tags

I was worried that would happen when google announced they would work cross-site.

Does a canonical tag have to be in the <head> section of the page to be effective?

If not, any site with a cross site scripting vulnerability that allows html code to be posted somehow is open to canonical tag pagerank siphoning.
