SA-CONTRIB-2014-081 - Site Banner - Cross Site Scripting (XSS)

The Site Banner module enables you to display a banner at the top and bottom of a Drupal site.

This module incorrectly prints existing context settings without proper sanitization, opening a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission “Administer contexts” from the Context UI module.

Versions affected

• Site Banner 7.x-4.x versions prior to 7.x-4.0.
