* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-144 * Project: Mass Contact [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 7.x * Date: 2015-September-02 * Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
This module allows anyone with permission to send a single message to multiple users of a site, using the site's roles and/or taxonomy functionality.
The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize the category labels when they are displayed.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "administer mass contact".

-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
