## What is DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2019-033?

DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2019-033 is a cross-site scripting vulnerability in drupal/eu_cookie_compliance, published on 6 Mar 2019. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

This module addresses the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that came into effect 25th May 2018, and the EU Directive on Privacy and Electronic Communications from 2012. It provides a banner where you can gather consent from the user when the website stores cookies on their computer or otherwise handles their personal information.

The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize data for some interface labels and strings shown in the cookie policy banner, opening up possibility of Cross Site Scripting exploits that can be created by somebody that has access to the admin interface of the module.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "Administer EU Cookie Compliance banner". For Drupal 8, the vulnerability also requires access to a text format that doesn't sanitize data.

Check this codebase for DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2019-033 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2019-033 is a cross-site scripting vulnerability in drupal/eu_cookie_compliance, published on 6 Mar 2019. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2019-033 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: drupal/eu_cookie_compliance. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
