- Project: Content Construction Kit (CCK) (third-party module)
- Version: 6.x

- Vulnerability: Open Redirect
Description
The Content Construction Kit (CCK) project is a set of modules that allows you to add custom fields to nodes using a web browser.
CCK uses a “destinations” query string parameter in URLs to redirect users to new destinations after completing an action on a few administration pages. Under certain circumstances, malicious users can use this parameter to construct a URL that will trick users into being redirected to a 3rd party website, thereby exposing the users to potential social engineering attacks.
