* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2014-110 * Project: Web Links [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 7.x * Date: 2015-May-20 * Security risk: 7/25 ( Less Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:None/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:Default [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------

The Web Links module provides a comprehensive way to manage url links to other websites.

The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize user supplied text, thereby exposing a Cross Site Scripting vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with permission to create/edit weblink nodes.

-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------

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

* Web Links 6.x-2.x versions prior to 6.x-2.6 * Web Links 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.0

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Web Links [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
