Discussion
Drupal Download Count Module HTML Injection Vulnerability
The Download Count 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.
Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would 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: To exploit this issue, attackers require valid authentication credentials with the 'administer download count' permission.
Download Count module versions 6.x-2.x and prior are vulnerable.
