Taxonomy Find - Unsupported - SA-CONTRIB-2015-153

This module enables you to add a simple search interface to lookup taxonomy terms by name.

The module doesn’t sufficiently sanitize output of taxonomy vocabulary names and term names.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission “Administer vocabularies and terms” or the ability to add or edit nodes or entities with taxonomy fields attached.
