Drupal 5.x before 5.13 and 6.x before 6.7 does not delete all related content when an input format is deleted, which prevents the content from being properly filtered and allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via unspecified vectors.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2008-6533 affects old Drupal 5 and 6 installations. When an input format was deleted, Drupal did not remove all related content, so some content could bypass expected filtering and expose users to cross-site scripting. This is mainly urgent for organizations still running unsupported legacy Drupal. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Drupal 5.x and 6.x sites below 5.13 or 6.7, especially where input formats were deleted. Modern Drupal versions are not identified as affected in the provided sources. Medium priority where legacy Drupal 5 or 6 remains in use, higher for public-facing sites with authenticated content authors. If no Drupal 5 or 6 assets exist, this CVE should be closed as not applicable after inventory validation. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Drupal 5.x to 5.13 or later, if still supported operationally.; Upgrade Drupal 6.x to 6.7 or later, if still supported operationally.; Check Drupal advisory guidance for any version-specific remediation details..
