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

Certain input is not properly sanitised before being displayed to the
user via taxonomy names. 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 by a user with "administer tac_lite" permissions.

Successful exploitation requires "administer taxonomy" permissions.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 6.x-1.5.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 6.x-1.5.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
The vendor credits AlexisWilke.
