* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2014-049
* Project: Organic groups [1] (third-party module)
* Version: 7.x
* Date: 2014-May-07
* Security risk: Moderately critical [2]
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Access bypass
-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------
Organic groups (OG) enables users to create and manage their own 'groups'.
Each group can have subscribers, and maintains a group home page where
subscribers communicate amongst themselves.
OG doesn't sufficiently check the permissions when a group member is pending
or blocked status within the group and tries to access information in a site.
This vulnerability only affects sites using the "Organic groups access
control" sub-module available within the Organic Groups package. It's further
mitigated by the fact that an attacker must be pending or blocked.
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED
--------------------------------------------

accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
---------------------------------------------------

-------- SOLUTION
