DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in the Search API Sorts module for
Drupal, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script
insertion attacks.

Certain input passed via field labels is not properly sanitised
before being used. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and
script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site if malicious data is viewed.

Successful exploitation requires the "administer taxonomy"
permission.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 7.x-1.4.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 7.x-1.4.
