[security-news at drupal.org]

View online: https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2019-036

Project: Views [1]
Version: 7.x-3.x-dev
Date: 2019-March-13
Security risk: *Less critical* 7∕25
AC:Complex/A:None/CI:None/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:Uncommon [2]
Vulnerability: Cross site scripting

Description: 
This module enables you to create customized lists of data.

The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize certain field types, leading to a
Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that a view must display a field
with the format "Full data (serialized)" and an attacker must have the
ability to store malicious markup in that field.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Views module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Views 7.x-3.21 [3]

Also see the Views [4] project page.
