  * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2012-070
  * Project: Taxonomy Grid : Catalog [1] (third-party module)
  * Version: 6.x
  * Date: 2012-May-02
  * Security risk: Less critical [2]
  * Exploitable from: Remote
  * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

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

This module provides a page where you can see each content types you've
selected under terms from vocabularies you've selected.
This module does not properly filter user supplied text resulting in a Cross
Site scripting bug. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an
attacker would need the ability to create or edit a vocabulary or term.

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

  * 6.x-1.6 and before

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Taxonomy Grid
: Catalog [3] module, there is nothing you need to do.

-------- SOLUTION  
------------------------------------------------------------

Uninstall the module

Also see the Taxonomy Grid : Catalog [4] project page.
