Hello Josh, Steve, vendors,

it was found in the way Drupal Views Builk Operations (VBO) module did
not escape the vocabulary help properly, when the vocabulary has had user
tagging enabled and "Modify node taxonomy terms" action was used for
modification of the taxonomy. A remote attacker could provide a
specially-crafted URL, which once visited by unsuspecting Drupal user,
disposing with the 'administer taxonomy' permission / privilege, could
lead to arbitrary HTML or web script execution (cross-site scripting
[XSS] attack).
