Project: Automated Logout [1] Version: 7.x-4.x-dev Date: 2017-November-01 Security risk: *Moderately critical* 14∕25 AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Proof/TD:All [2] Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
Description: This module provides a site administrator the ability to log users out after a specified time of inactivity. It is highly customizable and includes "site policies" by role to enforce log out.
The module does not sufficiently filter user-supplied text that is stored in the configuration, resulting in a persistent Cross Site Scripting vulnerability (XSS).
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "administer autologout".
Solution: Install the latest version:
* If you use the Automated Logout module for Drupal 7, upgrade to Automated Logout 7.x-4.5 [3]
