Scald – Moderately Critical – Information Disclosure – SA-CONTRIB-2015-151

Description

This module enables you to easily manage your media assets and re-use them in all your content.

The module provided a “debug” context that gave access to all the atom properties, including all the fields attached to this atom, without applying the corresponding field restrictions.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that only sites that added fields to an atom type and then restricted access to those fields are vulnerable.

CVE identifier(s) issued

  • A CVE identifier will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes.

Versions affected

  • Scald 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.5.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Scald: Media Management made easy module, there is nothing you need to do.

Solution

Install the latest version:

  • If you use the Scald module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Scald 7.x-1.5

Also see the Scald: Media Management made easy project page.

CMS Updater – Moderately Critical – Multiple vulnerabilities – SA-CONTRIB-2015-150

Description

CMS Updater allows to update Drupal core automatically with a subscription service.

Access bypass
The module does not sufficiently protect the settings page allowing any user with the permission “access administration pages” to change settings.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have the “access administration pages” permission on the site.

Cross Site Scripting (XSS)
The module does not sanitize user provided text on the configuration page thereby exposing a cross site scripting vulnerability.

There are no mitigating factors for the cross site scripting.

CVE identifier(s) issued

  • A CVE identifier will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes.

Versions affected

  • CMS Updater 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.3.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed CMS Updater module, there is nothing you need to do.

Solution

Install the latest version:

Also see the CMS Updater project page.
