  * Version: 6.x
  * Date: 2012-May-16
  * Security risk: Moderately critical [2]
  * Exploitable from: Remote
  * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

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

CVE: Requested.
The function filter_titles() incorrectly attempts to set a title to
plain-text, but does not properly filter user supplied text.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have the
permission to create or edit a node to exploit the issue.

---------------------------------------------------

  * Smart Breadcrumb 6.x-2.x versions prior to 6.x-1.3.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Smart
Breadcrumb [3] module, there is nothing you need to do.

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

Install the latest version:

  * If you use the Smart Breadcrumb module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Smart
    Breadcrumb 6.x-1.3 [4]

Also see the Smart Breadcrumb [5] project page.
