Drupal Security Advisories

me aliases – Moderately Critical – Access Bypass – SA-CONTRIB-2015-128

Description

‘me aliases’ module provides shortcut paths to current user’s pages, eg user/me, blog/me, user/me/edit, tracker/me etc.

The view user argument handler for the ‘me’ module has an access bypass vulnerability where it does not check the supplied argument against the current user. This allows any user to access the content served by the view by substituting ‘me’ in the URL with a user id even when they don’t have permission to access the content.

These only affects Views which use the Views ‘me’ user argument handler.

CVE identifier(s) issued

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

Versions affected

  • me aliases 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.2
  • me aliases 6.x-2.x versions prior to 6.x-2.10

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

Solution

Install the latest version:

  • If you use the ‘me aliases’ module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to me 7.x-1.2
  • If you use the ‘me aliases’ module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to me 6.x-2.10

Also see the me aliases project page.

Drupal version: 

HybridAuth Social Login – Less Critical – Access bypass – SA-CONTRIB-2015-127

Description

The HybridAuth Social Login module enables you to allow visitors to authenticate or login to a Drupal site using their identities from social networks like Facebook or Twitter.

The module allows account creation through social login when the configuration is set to allow user registration by administrators only.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that a site must be configured to allow user registration by administrators only and that authenticated user accounts can access sensitive data that would otherwise not be shown to anonymous users.

CVE identifier(s) issued

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

Versions affected

  • HybridAuth Social Login 7.x-2.x versions prior to 7.x-2.13.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed HybridAuth Social Login module, there is nothing you need to do.

Solution

Content Construction Kit (CCK) – Less Critical – Open Redirect – SA-CONTRIB-2015-126

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.

Drupal version: 

Drupal Core – Critical – Multiple Vulnerabilities – SA-CORE-2015-002

Description

Impersonation (OpenID module – Drupal 6 and 7 – Critical)

A vulnerability was found in the OpenID module that allows a malicious user to log in as other users on the site, including administrators, and hijack their accounts.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the victim must have an account with an associated OpenID identity from a particular set of OpenID providers (including, but not limited to, Verisign, LiveJournal, or StackExchange).

Open redirect (Field UI module – Drupal 7 – Less critical)

The Field UI module 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.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that only sites with the Field UI module enabled are affected.

Drupal 6 core is not affected, but see the similar advisory for the Drupal 6 contributed CCK module: SA-CONTRIB-2015-126

Open redirect (Overlay module – Drupal 7 – Less critical)

The Overlay module displays administrative pages as a layer over the current page (using JavaScript), rather than replacing the page in the browser window. The Overlay module does not sufficiently validate URLs prior to displaying their contents, leading to an open redirect vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that it can only be used against site users who have the “Access the administrative overlay” permission, and that the Overlay module must be enabled.

Information disclosure (Render cache system – Drupal 7 – Less critical)

On sites utilizing Drupal 7’s render cache system to cache content on the site by user role, private content viewed by user 1 may be included in the cache and exposed to non-privileged users.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that render caching is not used in Drupal 7 core itself (it requires custom code or the contributed Render Cache module to enable) and that it only affects sites that have user 1 browsing the live site. Exposure is also limited if an administrative role has been assigned to the user 1 account (which is done, for example, by the Standard install profile that ships with Drupal core).

CVE identifier(s) issued

  • Impersonation (OpenID module – Drupal 6 and 7): CVE-2015-3234
  • Open redirect (Field UI module – Drupal 7): CVE-2015-3232
  • Open redirect (Overlay module – Drupal 7: CVE-2015-3233
  • Information disclosure (Render cache system – Drupal 7): CVE-2015-3231

Versions affected

  • Drupal core 6.x versions prior to 6.36
  • Drupal core 7.x versions prior to 7.38

Solution

Install the latest version:

Also see the Drupal core project page.

Drupal version: 

Administration Views – Moderately Critical – Access Bypass – SA-CONTRIB-2015-122

Description

This module replaces administrative overview/listing pages with Views for improved usability.

When combined with other contributed or custom modules, the Administration Views module improperly grants users access to administration pages including the permissions page.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that it does not appear in the module itself, but only when combined with select other custom or contributed modules.

CVE identifier(s) issued

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

Versions affected

  • Administration Views 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.4.

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

Drupal version: 

The eXtensible Catalog (XC) Drupal Toolkit – Critical – Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) – Unsupported – SA-CONTRIB-2015-121

Description

The eXtensible Catalog Drupal Toolkit is a set of Drupal modules to harvest records of the XC Schema format from a Metadata Services Toolkit (MST).

The XC NCIP Provider module doesn’t sufficiently protect some URLs against CSRF. A malicious user can cause a user with “administer ncip providers” permission to alter NCIP providers by getting their browser to make a request to a specially-crafted URL.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that only sites that have the XC NCIP Provider module enabled are affected.

CVE identifier(s) issued

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

Versions affected

  • All versions of The eXtensible Catalog (XC) Drupal Toolkit

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed The eXtensible Catalog (XC) Drupal Toolkit module, there is nothing you need to do.

Solution

If you use The eXtensible Catalog (XC) Drupal Toolkit you should uninstall it.

Drupal version: 

Inline Entity Form – Less critical – Cross Site Scripting (XSS) – SA-CONTRIB-2015-120

Description

The Inline Entity Form module provides a field widget for inline management (creation, modification, removal) of referenced entities.

The module doesn’t sufficiently sanitize user supplied text, thereby exposing a Cross Site Scripting vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with permission to create/edit fields.

CVE identifier(s) issued

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

Versions affected

  • Inline Entity Form 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.6.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Inline Entity Form module, there is nothing you need to do.

Solution

Install the latest version:
