Project: Civic Cookie Control [1]
Date: 2023-June-21
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 11∕25
AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:Uncommon [2]
Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

Description: 
CivicCookieControl is a module that can help make a website compliant with EU
and UK cookie legislation.

The Civic GovUK Cookie Control module does not sufficiently sanitize the
configuration resulting in a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the attacker must have a
role with the "Administer Civic Cookie Control" permission.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Civic Cookie Control module for Drupal 9.x, upgrade to
     Civic Cookie Control 4.4.13 [3]
