   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2016-025
   * Project: Fieldable Panels Panes (FPP) [1] (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2016-May-04
   * Security risk: 10/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:Complex/A:User/CI:None/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
   * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

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

This module enables you to create fieldable entities that have special
integration with Panels.

The module doesn't sufficiently filter the entity title or admin title fields
when they are displayed in either the Panels admin UI or the In-Place Editor
(IPE), allowing for specially crafted XSS attacks.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role
with the necessary permissions to create FPP objects, and then either:

   * a user with permission to use the Panels In-Place-Editor (IPE) must visit
     a page that the FPP object is added to; or
   * a user with permission to use the Panels admin interface must edit a page
     the FPP object is added to.


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

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

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

   * Fieldable Panels Panes 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.10.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Fieldable
Panels Panes (FPP) [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.

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

Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Fieldable Panels Panes module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to
     Fieldable Panels Panes 7.x-1.10 [5].
