Project: Context [1]
Version: 7.x-3.x-dev
Date: 2019-February-27
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 14∕25
AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Cross site scripting

Description: 
This module enables you to manage contextual conditions and reactions for
different portions of your site.

The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize user output when displayed leading
to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have the
ability to store malicious markup in the site (e.g. permission to create a
node with a field that accepts "filtered html").

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

  * If you use the context module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to context 7.x-3.10
    [3]

Also see the Context [4] project page.
