* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-053 * Project: Entity API [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x * Date: 2015-February-25 * Security risk: 12/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Complex/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
The Entity API module extends the entity API of Drupal core in order to provide a unified way to deal with entities and their properties.
The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize field labels when exposing them through the Token API thereby exposing a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission to administer fields such as "administer taxonomy".
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* Entity API 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.6.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Entity API [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version:
* If you use the Entity API module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Entity API 7.x-1.6 [5]
Also see the Entity API [6] project page.
