By Drupal Security Team on
- Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2017-049
- Project: Display Suite (third-party module)
- Version: 8.x
- Date: 2017-May-17
- Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:Default
- Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
Description
Display Suite allows you to take full control over how your content is displayed using a drag and drop interface.
In certain situations, Display Suite does not properly sanitize some of the output, allowing a malicious user to embed scripts within a page, resulting in a Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
Versions affected
- Display Suite 8.x-2.x versions prior to 8.x-2.7.
- Display Suite 8.x-3.x versions prior to 8.x-3.0.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Display Suite module, there is nothing you need to do.
Solution
Install the latest version:
- If you use the Display Suite module for Drupal 8.x-2.x, upgrade to Display Suite 8.x-2.7
- If you use the Display Suite module for Drupal 8.x-3.x, upgrade to Display Suite 8.x-3.0
