Drupal ImageCache Module Security Bypass and HTML Injection Vulnerabilities

Drupal ImageCache module is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability and an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker may leverage these issues to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site, steal cookie-based authentication credentials, control how the site is rendered to the user, or perform unauthorized actions; other attacks may also be possible.

Versions prior to ImageCache 5.x-2.5 and 6.x-2.0-beta10 are vulnerable.
