-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
The Spotlight module provides a tool that mimics Mac OS X Spotlight functionality. It provides faster access to content, paths and uploaded files.
The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize node titles when displayed in results.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission to create content.

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

-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------
