Advisory ID: 
BACKDROP-SA-CONTRIB-2019-012
Security risk: 
Moderately Critical
Vulnerability: 
Cross Site Scripting
Versions affected: 
Description: 

The Ubercart module provides a shopping cart and e-commerce features for Backdrop CMS.

The order submodule doesn't sufficiently sanitize user input when displayed on an invoice, leading to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "edit orders".

Solution: 

Upgrade your site to the most recent version of the Ubercart module. See the update instructions, if needed.
