This module enables you to build searches using a wide range of features, data sources and backends.
The module doesnβt sufficiently sanitize user input when displaying errors in a view with certain backends, including the database backend. This enables attackers to create a Reflected Cross Site Scripting attack by manipulating the URL.
This is mitigated by the fact that the vulnerability only occurs with some backends (the Solr backend, e.g., is safe) and for certain common configurations of facets.
The module also doesnβt sufficiently sanitize output field names in the admin view.
This is mitigated by the fact that an attacker would have to have the necessary permissions to change the field names of an indexed entity type.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Search API module, there is nothing you need to do.
