ESB-2011.0067
A vulnerability has been identified in Janrain Engage
(Drupal third-party module)
20 January 2011
===========================================================================
AusCERT Security Bulletin Summary
---------------------------------
Product: Janrain Engage (Drupal third-party module)
Publisher: Drupal
Operating System: UNIX variants (UNIX, Linux, OSX)
Windows
Impact/Access: Cross-site Scripting -- Remote with User Interaction
Execute Arbitrary Code/Commands -- Remote with User Interaction
Resolution: Patch/Upgrade
Original Bulletin:
http://drupal.org/node/1033154
- --------------------------BEGIN INCLUDED TEXT--------------------
* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2011-003
* Project: Janrain Engage (formerly RPX) (third-party module)
* Version: 6.x
* Date: 2011-January-19
* Security risk: Less critical
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting or Arbitrary Code Execution
- -------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
RPX (recently renamed Janrain Engage) is a service that acts as a middleman
between a site and external login providers like Facebook, Yahoo,
WindowsLive, etc. As part of this functionality it offers the ability to take
a user's avatar on these services and download it for use as the user's
profile photo. The module did not properly validate this file prior to saving
it in the site.
This could result in XSS or perhaps arbitrary code execution if a malicious
user is able to insert an arbitrary file instead of the profile image.
- -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* Janrain Engage / RPX module 6.x-1.3 only
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Janrain Engage
/ RPX module, there is nothing you need to do.
- -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version:
* If you use the 6.x-1.3 version of the Janrain Engage / RPX module upgrade
to the 1.4 version [1]
