high Nessus Network Monitor Plugin ID 3053

Synopsis

The remote host is vulnerable to a Script Injection attack.

Description

The remote host is running Drupal, a content management system. This version of Drupal is vulnerable to a flaw in the way that it handles user-supplied 'comments'.

An attacker exploiting this flaw would only need to post a specially formatted comment via the Drupal web interface.
