DescriptionCVE.org

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Drupal Lightgallery allows Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).This issue affects Lightgallery: from 0.0.0 before 1.6.0.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Drupal Lightgallery (versions before 1.6.0) allows attackers to inject malicious scripts that execute in users' browsers, potentially compromising session data, credentials, and sensitive information. Organizations using this module are at immediate risk of account compromise and data theft until remediation is completed.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Disable Lightgallery module if functionality is not critical. Implement WAF rules to detect and block XSS payloads. Restrict gallery upload and configuration permissions to trusted administrators only. Enable Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to mitigate XSS impact. Monitor access logs for suspicious Lightgallery activity. When patch becomes available, apply immediately.
