  * Version: 7.x
  * Date: 2013-10-23
  * Security risk: Highly critical [2]
  * Exploitable from: Remote
  * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

-------- DESCRIPTION  
---------------------------------------------------------

This module enables you to create block entities a.k.a. beans.

The module did not sufficiently filter bean titles for dangerous html.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have
permission to create or edit beans.

    accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./

  * Bean 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.5

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Bean [4]
module, there is nothing you need to do.

-------- SOLUTION  
------------------------------------------------------------

Install the latest version:

  * If you use the Bean module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Bean 7.x-1.5 [5]

Also see the Bean [6] project page.
