SA-CONTRIB-2013-077 - Google Site Search - Cross Site Scripting (XSS)

This module enables you to use the Google API to search one or more sites and show the result in your Drupal site, with your custom styling.

The module doesn’t sufficiently sanitize the data retrieved from the Google API.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attack must come from the API which requires either compromising Google or spoofing DNS.

Versions affected

• Google Site Search 6.x-1.x versions before 6.x-1.4.
