Vulnerability: Cross Site ScriptingThe Custom Breadcrumbs module provides a variety of options for customizing the breadcrumb trail.

Since the new vulnerability for Apache Log4j detected in December 2021 got massive news coverage around the globe, we started receiving concerned questions from our customers about how this could affect their Drupal websites hosted on AltaGrade platform. And such Log4j-related support requests still continue to be filed in our customer support portal and because they all have the same or similar resolutions, I decided to summarize them here in form of questions and answers.
Because of known security issues for the contributed modules and themes which have not been fixed by their maintainer, as of today - January 25, 2022 - the Drupal Security Team has marked them all as unsupported.
If you are an AltaGrade customer with Drupal websites hosted on our platform and using the following modules or themes, then please let us know and we will make necessary changes.
