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

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

Successful exploitation requires permission to create or edit content
with a FileField and that the administrator has configured a
vulnerable display format or uses a special token.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to FileField 5.x-2.5
and FileField 6.x-3.4.

SOLUTION:
Update to FileField version 5.x-2.5 or later, or FileField version
6.x-3.4 or later.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
* Justin Klein Keane
* The vendor also credits Peter Wolanin of the Drupal security team.
