-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 =========================================================================== AUSCERT External Security Bulletin Redistribution ESB-2011.1028 A number of vulnerabilities have been identified in Drupal third-party modules 13 October 2011 =========================================================================== AusCERT Security Bulletin Summary --------------------------------- Product: Certificate Login (Drupal third-party module) Cumulus (Drupal third-party module) Publisher: Drupal Operating System: Windows UNIX variants (UNIX, Linux, OSX) Impact/Access: Execute Arbitrary Code/Commands -- Remote with User Interaction Cross-site Scripting -- Remote with User Interaction Resolution: Patch/Upgrade Original Bulletin: http://drupal.org/node/1307494 http://drupal.org/node/1307504 Comment: This bulletin contains two (2) Drupal security advisories. - --------------------------BEGIN INCLUDED TEXT-------------------- * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2011-048 * Project: Certificate Login [1] (third-party module) * Version: 5.x, 6.x * Date: 2011-October-12 * Security risk: Critical [2] * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: SQL Injection - -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- The Certificate login module provides client certificate authentication of Drupal users. The authentication is based on the client certificate's data fields, which are then used as the user name for authentication. The obtained data isn't properly sanitized using Drupal's database API, which may cause an SQL injection vulnerability depending on the module settings. - -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Certificate Login versions prior to 6.x-2.3. Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Certificate Login [3] module, there is nothing you need to do. - -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the Certificate Login module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Certificate Login 6.x-2.3 [4]. Note: all Drupal 5.x modules are not supported, including the Certificate Login module for 5.x. If you use Drupal 5.x you should upgrade now. See also the Certificate Login [5] project page. - -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * Jyri-Petteri â\x{128}\x{157}ZeiPâ\x{128}\x{157} Paloposki [6] - -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Jyri-Petteri â\x{128}\x{157}ZeiPâ\x{128}\x{157} Paloposki [7], a module maintainer - -------- COORDINATED BY ------------------------------------------------------ * Greg Knaddison [8] of the Drupal Security Team - -------- CONTACT AND MORE INFORMATION ---------------------------------------- The Drupal security team can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the contact form at http://drupal.org/contact [9]. Learn more about the Drupal Security team and their policies [10], writing secure code for Drupal [11], and securing your site [12].

The module ships with a Flash file (cumulus.swf) that contains a cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that can be exploited when a user is made to view a specially crafted URL. If the user is logged in to an administrative account, the script can take actions using their permissions or disclose sensitive information to a third party. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that user being attacked must be logged in to the site with a privileged account and tricked into visiting a specially crafted URL. - -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Cumulus versions prior to 6.x-1.5 [3] Because the vulnerability is in a Flash file that ships with the module rather than in the Drupal code itself, any site that has a vulnerable version of the module in its file system (regardless of whether the module is enabled or not) is potentially affected. The same is true for any custom modules or themes on the site into which a copy of the cumulus.swf file may have been made. Drupal core is not affected. If you do not have the contributed Cumulus [4] module in your site's file system, there is nothing you need to do. - -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you have the Cumulus module anywhere on your site's file system, upgrade to Cumulus 6.x-1.5 [5] (or remove the module if you are no longer using it). Note: all Drupal 5.x modules are not supported, including the Cumulus module for 5.x. If you use Drupal 5.x you should upgrade now. See also the Cumulus [6] project page. - -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * The vulnerability was publicly disclosed. - -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Florian Weber [7], one of the Cumulus module maintainers - -------- COORDINATED BY ------------------------------------------------------ * David Rothstein [8] of the Drupal Security Team - -------- CONTACT AND MORE INFORMATION ---------------------------------------- The Drupal security team can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the contact form at http://drupal.org/contact [9].
