* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2012-072 * Project: cctags [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 7.x * Date: 2012-May-02 * Security risk: Moderately critical [2] * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
This module enables you to create "tag clouds" with taxonomy terms displayed in different sizes depending on how frequently they are used on a site. The module doesn't sufficiently filter user supplied text leading to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the ability to create or edit vocabularies or terms.
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* cctags 6.x-1.x versions prior to 6.x-1.10. * cctags 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.10.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed cctags [3] module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version:
* If you use the cctags module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to cctags 6.x-1.10 [4] * If you use the cctags module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to cctags 7.x-1.10 [5]
Also see the cctags [6] project page.
