Update Information:

Fixes SA-CORE-2009-006 ( https://www.drupal.org/node/461886 ). Remember to log in
to your site as the admin user before upgrading this package. After upgrading
the package, browse to to run the upgrade script.
When outputting user-supplied data Drupal strips potentially dangerous HTML
attributes and tags or escapes characters which have a special meaning in HTML.
This output filtering secures the site against cross site scripting attacks via
user input. Certain byte sequences that are valid in the UTF-8 specification
are potentially dangerous when interpreted as UTF-7. Internet Explorer 6 and 7
may decode these characters as UTF-7 if they appear before the tag that specifies the page content as UTF-8, despite the
fact that Drupal also sends a real HTTP header specifying the content as UTF-8.
This enables attackers to execute cross site scripting attacks with UTF-7. SA-
CORE-2009-005 - Drupal core - Cross site scripting contained an incomplete fix
for the issue. HTML exports of books are still vulnerable, which means that
anyone with edit permissions for pages in outlines is able to insert arbitrary
HTML and script code in these exports. Additionally, the taxonomy module
allows users with the 'administer taxonomy' permission to inject arbitrary HTML
and script code in the help text of any vocabulary. Wikipedia has more
information about cross site scripting (XSS).
