Discussion
Drupal Bibliography Module Unspecified HTML Injection Vulnerability
The Bibliography module for Drupal is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in dynamically generated content.
Successful exploits will allow attacker-supplied HTML and script code to run in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible.
Note that to exploit this issue, the attacker must have sufficient privileges to create content displayed by the Bibliography module.
Versions prior to Bibliography 6.x-1.7 are vulnerable.
