- Security risk: 7/25 ( Less Critical) AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:None/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:All
- Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
Description
The Inline Entity Form module provides a field widget for inline management (creation, modification, removal) of referenced entities.
The module doesn’t sufficiently sanitize user supplied text, thereby exposing a Cross Site Scripting vulnerability.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with permission to create/edit fields.
