## What is DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-055?

DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-055 is a cross-site scripting vulnerability in drupal/dvf, published on 20 Dec 2023. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

This module allows you to turn various data sources (Eg CSV or JSON file) into interactive visualisation. The DVF module provides a field (storage, widget & formatter) that can be added to any entity.

This module uses two third-party JS libraries having from low to medium vulnerabilities. One of the vulnerabilities is a Cross Site Scripting vulnerability that may affect Drupal sites as a Persistent Cross Site Scripting vulnerability (i.e. not reflected). This release updates the libraries.

The issue is mitigated by the fact an attacker needs the permission to create or edit content that is displayed using the Data Visualization Framework.

Check this codebase for DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-055 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-055 is a cross-site scripting vulnerability in drupal/dvf, published on 20 Dec 2023. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of DRUPAL-CONTRIB-2023-055 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: drupal/dvf. 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.
