-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------
Within the MediaFront module, there is a PHP library for handling the stand
alone application of the Open Standard Media player. Within this library,
both the $_SESSION and $_SERVER variables are handled without proper checks
to make sure that no malicious code is injected within these variables.

* MediaFront 6.x-1.x versions prior to 6.x-1.5.
* MediaFront 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.5.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed MediaFront [3]
module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION

6.x-1.5 [4]
* If you use the Mediafront module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Mediafront
