VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/38186/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in the Node Blocks module for
Drupal, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script
insertion attacks.

Input passed via block titles is not properly sanitised before being
displayed to the user. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML
and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site when the malicious data is being viewed.

Successful exploitation requires that users have permissions to
create or edit content types.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 6.x-1.4 and
5.x-1.2.
