   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-013
   * Project: Field Display Label [1]     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2015-January-07
   * Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
   * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

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

This module enables you to use a different label for displaying fields from
the label used when viewing the field in a form.

The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize the alternate field label in content
types settings.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role
with the permission to add or edit fields on an entity.


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

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

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

   * Field Display Label 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.2.

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

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

Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Field Display Label module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to 
Field
     Display Label 7.x-1.3 [5]

Also see the Field Display Label [6] project page.
