Drupal S5 Presentation Player Module HTML Injection Vulnerability

The S5 Presentation Player 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.

Versions prior to S5 Presentation Player 6.x-1.1 are vulnerable.
