   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2014-052
   * Project: Addressfield Tokens [1] (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2014-May-14
   * Security risk: Moderately critical [2]
   * Exploitable from: Remote
   * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

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

The AddressField Tokens module extends the addressfield module by adding
token support. It also adds some convenient addressfield formatters and
provides Webform addressfield integration.

The module does not properly filter address field values, resulting in a
Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability which can be leveraged by any user
that can edit an addressfield on a site displaying that field using the
"address components" field formatter.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role
with the permission to create or edit an AddressField field (e.g. create or
edit a node).


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

   * /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in
     accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
