Field Group - Moderately Critical - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) - SA-CONTRIB-2016-001
View online: https://www.drupal.org/node/2645350 * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2016-001 * Project: Field Group [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x * Date: 2016-January-06 * Security risk: 12/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:Default [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- Field Group module enables you to group fields on entity forms and entity displays. When adding a HTML element as group, the user has the option to add custom HTML attributes on the group. Via this option, a malicious user can embed scripts within the page, resulting in a Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker has to be able to configure field display settings, which usually needs a higher level permission such as /Administer vocabularies and 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 --------------------------------------------------- * Field Group 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.5. Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Field Group [4] module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the Field Group module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Field Group 7.x-1.5 [5] Also see the Field Group [6] project page. -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * Pere Orga [7] of the Drupal Security Team -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Nils Destoop [8], module maintainer * Pere Orga [9] of the Drupal Security Team -------- COORDINATED BY ------------------------------------------------------ * David Snopek [10] 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 https://www.drupal.org/contact [11].
