Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in the TrailScout Module for Drupal, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks and malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed when creating a new post is not properly sanitised before being used. 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 a malicious post is viewed.
Successful exploitation requires privileges to create posts.
2) Certain input passed via cookies is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions for Drupal 5.x prior to 5.x-1.4.
Solution:
Update to version 5.x-1.4.
