Doubleclick for Publishers (DFP) - Moderately critical - Cross site scripting - SA-CONTRIB-2022-035

Project: Doubleclick for Publishers (DFP)
Date: 2022-May-04
Security risk: Moderately critical 13∕25
Vulnerability: Cross site scripting

Description

Doubleclick for Publishers (DFP) module enables a site to place ads from Doubleclick For Publishers.

The module doesn't sanitize user input in certain cases, which leads to Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. An attacker that can create or edit certain entities may be able to exploit a Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) vulnerability to target visitors of the site, including site admins with privileged access.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "administer DFP".

Solution

Install the latest version:

If you use the Doubleclick for Publishers module for Drupal 9.x, upgrade to DFP 8.x-1.2

Note that the Drupal 7 version of this module is unaffected.
