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

Certain unspecified input related to the modification of taxonomy via
the "Modify node taxonomy terms" action and user tagging enabled
vocabulary is not properly sanitised before being displayed to the
user as vocabulary help. 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 of this vulnerability normally requires
"administer taxonomy" permissions.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 6.x-1.11.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 6.x-1.11.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
The vendor credits Jim Berry.
