-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 =========================================================================== AUSCERT External Security Bulletin Redistribution ESB-2010.1041 A number of vulnerbilities have been identified in Drupal third-party modules 12 November 2010 =========================================================================== AusCERT Security Bulletin Summary --------------------------------- Product: Category tokens (Drupal third-party module) Node Relativity (Drupal third-party module) Publisher: Drupal Operating System: UNIX variants (UNIX, Linux, OSX) Windows Impact/Access: Cross-site Request Forgery -- Remote with User Interaction Cross-site Scripting -- Remote with User Interaction Unauthorised Access -- Remote with User Interaction Resolution: Patch/Upgrade Original Bulletin: http://drupal.org/node/968176 http://drupal.org/node/968528 Comment: This bulletin contains two (2) Drupal security advisories. - --------------------------BEGIN INCLUDED TEXT-------------------- * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-102 * Project: Category tokens (third-party module) * Version: 6.x * Date: 2010-November-10 * Security risk: Less critical * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross-Site Scripting - -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- The Category tokens module exposes additional tokens for the first and last terms related to a node for each vocabulary. The module does not sanitize the vocabulary names when displayed in token help, leading to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS [1]) vulnerability that may lead to a malicious user gaining full administrative access. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that user must have the "administer taxonomy" permission in order to create and edit vocabularies and enter the XSS. - -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Category tokens module for Drupal 6.x versions prior to 6.x-1.1. Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Category tokens [2] module, there is nothing you need to do. - -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the Category tokens module for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Category tokens 6.x-1.1 [3] See also the Category tokens project page [4]. - -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * Dave Reid [5], Drupal Security Team - -------- FIXED BY - ------------------------------------------------------------ * Dave Reid [6], Drupal Security Team * scheepers de bruin [7], module maintainer - -------- CONTACT ------------------------------------------------------------- The Drupal security team [8] can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the form at http://drupal.org/contact.

The Node Relativity module does not sanitize some of the user supplied data before displaying it, leading to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS [1]) vulnerability which can be used by a malicious user to gain full administrative access. The Node Relativity module does not protect the links to establish relations between nodes against Cross-site Request Forgeries (CSRF [2]) vulnerability which can be used by a malicious user to directly perform operations on the database. The Node Relativity module does not implement node access logic properly, resulting in the display of node titles and the establishing of relations between nodes the user has no access to. - -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Node Relativity module for Drupal 5.x versions prior to 5.x-2.6 * Node Relativity module for Drupal 6.x versions prior to 6.x-1.4 Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Node Relativity [3] module, there is nothing you need to do. - -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the Node Relativity module for Drupal 5.x upgrade to Node Relativity 5.x-2.6 [4] * If you use the Node Relativity module for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Node Relativity 6.x-1.4 [5] See also the Node Relativity project page [6]. - -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * recrit [7] * catch [8] of the Drupal security team - -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Jonathan Araña Cruz [9], module maintainer - -------- CONTACT AND MORE INFORMATION ---------------------------------------- The Drupal security team can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the form at http://drupal.org/contact.
