SA-CONTRIB-2010-113 - Image - Cross Site Scripting
Posted by Drupal Security Team on December 22, 2010 at 9:25pm
* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-113
* Project: Image (third-party module)
* Version: 5.x, 6.x
* Date: 2010-December-22
* Security risk: Critical
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting
Description
The Image module project contains supplemental modules, one of which, Image
gallery, allows users to create and maintain galleries of image nodes using
taxonomy terms.
The Image gallery module does not sanitize some user-supplied data before
displaying it, leading to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability which can
be used by a malicious user to gain full administrative access.
Mitigating factors: In order to exploit this vulnerability the Image gallery
module must be enabled and the attacker must have the ability to edit or
create image galleries.
Versions affected
* Image module for Drupal 6.x prior to 6.x-1.1
* Image module for Drupal 5.x prior to 5.x-2.0
* Image module for Drupal 5.x prior to 5.x-1.10
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Image module
there is nothing you need to do.
Solution
Install the latest version:
* If you use Image for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Image 6.x-1.1.
* If you use Image 5.x-2.0-alpha5 or lower for Drupal 5.x upgrade to
Image 5.x-2.0.
* If you use Image 5.x-1.9 or lower for Drupal 5.x upgrade to Image
5.x-1.10.
