Project: TacJS [1]
Date: 2023-June-28
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 13∕25
AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Cross site scripting

Description: 
This module enables sites to comply with the European cookie law using
tarteaucitron.js.

The module doesn't sufficiently filter user-supplied text leading to a Cross
Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker needs additional
permissions. The vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker with a role
with the permission "administer tacjs" regardless of other configurations.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the tacjs alert module, upgrade to tacjs 8.x-6.4 [3]

Reported By: 
   * Pierre Rudloff [4]

Fixed By: 
   * Amine Boulaffas [5]
   * Frank Mably [6]

Coordinated By: 
   * Damien McKenna [7] of the Drupal Security Team
   * Cathy Theys [8] of the Drupal Security Team
   * Greg Knaddison [9] of the Drupal Security Team
