-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
Finder is a Drupal module that allows users to create faceted search forms. The module's autocomplete, checkbox, and radio button functionalities previously did not sanitize the output of fields and raw database values.
In addition, users with the "administer finder" permission were able to execute arbitrary code through a PHP import interface; specific PHP execution permissions were not required.
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* Finder 6.x-1.x prior to 6.x-1.26 * Finder 7.x-1.x versions (all) * Finder 7.x-2.x versions prior to 7.x-2.0-alpha8
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Finder [3] module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------

* If you use the Finder module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Finder 6.x-1.26 [4]. * If you use the Finder module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Finder 7.x-2.0-alpha8 [5].
