The module incorrectly prints date field titles without proper sanitization thereby opening a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. The vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a permission to create Date fields, such as "administer taxonomy" to add date fields on taxonomy terms. -------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED -------------------------------------------- * /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./ -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Date [4] module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the date module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Date 7.x-2.8 [5] Also see the Date [6] project page. -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * Lucas D Hedding [7] -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Vijayachandran Mani [8] the module maintainer -------- COORDINATED BY ------------------------------------------------------ * Klaus Purer [9] of the Drupal Security Team -------- CONTACT AND MORE INFORMATION ---------------------------------------- The Drupal security team can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the contact form at http://drupal.org/contact [10].
