Description

This module provides integration with the Cloudwords third-party service.

The module was not sanitizing node titles on certain conditions, thereby leading to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

Also, a menu callback was not protected against CSRF.

The XSS vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a user with permissions to create nodes.
