SA-CONTRIB-2014-128 – Organic Groups Menu – Access bypass

Description

This module enables you to associate menus with Organic Groups (OG). It allows you to create one or more menus per group, configure and apply menu permissions in a group context, add/edit menu links directly from the entity form, etc.

The module doesn’t sufficiently check the menu parameters passed in the path, creating an access bypass vulnerability allowing an attacker to edit or delete any menu link on the site. There is also an information disclosure vulnerability of menu info.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission “administer og menu”.

This handles the same issue as SA-CONTRIB-2014-125, but due to a mistake made in tagging the release, the fix did not get included.
