Drupal 7.x < 7.80 Cross-Site Scripting

high Web App Scanning Plugin ID 112759

Synopsis

Drupal 7.x < 7.80 Cross-Site Scripting

Description

According to its self-reported version, the instance of Drupal running on the remote web server is 7.0.x prior to 7.80, 8.9.x prior to 8.9.14, 9.0.x prior to 9.0.12 or 9.1.x prior to 9.1.7. It is, therefore, affected by a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to Drupal core's sanitization API.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update to Drupal version 7.80 or latest.
