- Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2017-004
- Project: OpenLucius (third-party distribution)
- Version: 7.x
- Date: 2017-January-11
- Security risk: 14/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All
- Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting, Cross Site Request Forgery
Description
OpenLucius is a work management platform for social communication, documentation, and projects.
The distribution doesn’t sufficiently use tokens when marking messages for users as read thereby exposing a Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability.
The distribution does not sufficiently filter taxonomy term names before outputting them to HTML thereby exposing a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have permissions to insert malicious taxonomy terms.
CVE identifier(s) issued
- A CVE identifier will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes.
