-------- DESCRIPTION

Cool aid is a Drupal module that allows users to add custom help messages to
Drupal pages. The module did not properly clean user input before displaying
it, and did not properly check for access permissions, allowing users with

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Cool aid;
Editable help messages [3] module, there is nothing you need to do.

-------- SOLUTION

* If you use the Cool aid module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Cool aid
6.x-1.9. [4]
