   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-018
   * Project: Video [1]     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2015-January-14
   * Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:Default [2]
   * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

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

This module enables you to upload, convert and playback videos.

The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize node titles when using the video
WYSIWYG plugin, thereby opening a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role
with the permission "create video nodes" and that WYSIWYG video plugin must
be enabled.


-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED
--------------------------------------------

   * /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in
     accordance
            with Drupal Security Team processes./

-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
---------------------------------------------------

   * Video 7.x-2.x versions from 7.x-2.2-beta1 to 7.x-2.10.

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

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

Install the latest version:

   * If you use the video module for Drupal 7.x-2.x, upgrade to Video 7.x-2.11
     [5]

Also see the Video [6] project page.
