- Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-018
- Project: Video (third-party module)
- Version: 7.x
- Date: 2015-January-14
- Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:Default
- Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
Description
This module enables you to upload, convert and playback videos.
The module doesn’t sufficiently sanitize node titles when using the video WYSIWYG plugin, thereby opening a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission “create video nodes” and that WYSIWYG video plugin must be enabled.
CVE identifier(s) issued
- A CVE identifier will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance
with Drupal Security Team processes.
Versions affected
- Video 7.x-2.x versions from 7.x-2.2-beta1 to 7.x-2.10.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Video module,
there is nothing you need to do.
Solution
Install the latest version:
- If you use the video module for Drupal 7.x-2.x, upgrade to Video 7.x-2.11
Also see the Video project page.
