Project: Internationalization [1]
Version: 7.x-1.x-dev
Date: 2020-June-17
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 14∕25
AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Cross site scripting

Description: 
The Internationalization (i18n) [3] module is a collection of modules to
extend Drupal core multilingual capabilities and allows to build real life
multilingual sites.

A value in the term translation module is displayed without being escaped
leading to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role
with the permission "Edit terms in " on a taxonomy vocabulary with i18n term
translation enabled and the victim uses the i18n term translation page.


Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Internationalization (i18n) [4] module for Drupal 7.x,
     upgrade to i18n 7.x-1.27 [5]

Also see the Internationalization [6] project page.
