SA-CONTRIB-2014-073- Date - Cross Site Scripting (XSS)
Posted by Drupal Security Team on July 30, 2014 at 3:25pm

    Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2014-073
    Project: Date (third-party module)
    Version: 7.x
    Date: 2014-July-30
    Security risk: Moderately Critical
    Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

Description

Date module provides flexible date/time field type Date field and a
Date API that other modules can use.

The module incorrectly prints date field titles without proper
sanitization thereby opening a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

The vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a
permission to create Date fields, such as "administer taxonomy" to add
date fields on taxonomy terms.

CVE identifier(s) issued

    CVE-2014-5169


Versions affected

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Date
module, there is nothing you need to do.



Solution

Install the latest version:

    If you use the date module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Date 7.x-2.8

Also see the Date project page.
