* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2016-051 * Project: Flag Lists [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x * Date: 2016-September-07 * Security risk: 14/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
This module enables regular users to create unlimited private flags called lists.
The flag_lists module doesn't sufficiently filter the output when applying token strings to flag_lists links leading to a persistent Cross Site Scripting (XSS) attack.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the "Create flag lists" permission.
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
