SA-CONTRIB-2009-070 - Shibboleth authentication - Impersonation, privilege escalation
by security-news＠drupal.org 14 Oct '09

14 Oct '09

* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-070 * Project: Shibboleth authentication (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 5.x * Date: 2009-October-14 * Security risk: Less critical * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Impersonation, privilege escalation -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- The Shibboleth authentication module provides user authentication and authorisation based on the Shibboleth Web Single Sign-on system. The module does not properly handle the changes of the underlying Shibboleth session. This can result in impersonation and possible privilege escalation if a user leaves the browser unattended (ie. after SAML2 Single Logout). A person using the same browser session but re-authenticated at their IdP might become logged in as the original user (even accidentally). Dynamic roles which are provided by the module are based on the attributes of the new user, however any permissions statically granted to the victim would still be in effect. -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Shibboleth authentication versions for Drupal 6.x prior to 6.x-3.2 * Shibboleth authentication versions for Drupal 5.x prior to 5.x-3.4 Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Shibboleth authentication module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Upgrade to the latest version: * If you use Shibboleth authentication for Drupal 6.x upgrade to version 6.x-3.2 [1] * If you use Shibboleth authentication for Drupal 5.x upgrade to version 5.x-3.4 [2] See also the Shibboleth authentication [3] project page. -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- Kristof Bajnok [4], Shibboleth authentication module maintainer. -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ Kristof Bajnok [5], Shibboleth authentication module maintainer. -------- CONTACT ------------------------------------------------------------- The security contact for Drupal can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the form at http://drupal.org/contact.

SA-CONTRIB-2009-069 - Shared Sign On - Cross Site Scripting
by security-news＠drupal.org 30 Sep '09

30 Sep '09

* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-069 * Project: Shared Sign On (third-party module) * Version: 5.x, 6.x * Date: 2009 September 30 * Security risk: Critical * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Multiple vulnerabilities -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- The Shared Sign On module enables users to log into one Drupal site and be automatically logged into multiple related Drupal sites. The module suffers multiple vulnerabilities, including Cross Site Request Forgeries (CSRF [1]) and Session fixation problem (Session Fixation [2]). This problem allows an attacker to hijack the account of a logged in user by tricking them into visiting a seemingly innocent page. -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Versions of Shared Sign On for both Drupal 5.x and Drupal 6.x Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Shared Sign On module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ The Shared Sign On module is marked as un-supported. A separate project called Single Sign On [3] has been created as a replacement. Download the Single Sign On module and carefully read the README.txt as there is a risk of breaking a site if instructions are not carried out correctly. -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * Reported by Jose A. Reyero [4] and Steven Wittens [5]. -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Fixed by Steven Wittens [6] of Strutta Inc. and Jakub Suchy [7] of Drupal Security team and Heine Deelstra [8] of Drupal Security Team. -------- CONTACT ------------------------------------------------------------- The security contact for Drupal can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the form at http://drupal.org/contact.

SA-CONTRIB-2009-068 - Boost - Filesystem Directory Creation
by security-news＠drupal.org 30 Sep '09

30 Sep '09

* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-068 * Project: Boost (third-party module) * Version: 6.x-1.* * Date: 2009-09-30 * Security risk: Low * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Filesystem Directory Creation -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- The Boost module provides a static file-based cache of Drupal pages for anonymous users. A vulnerability in the module allows an attacker to create new directories inside the webroot that the web server can write to. Existing directories cannot be changed using this vulnerability, but it can be used to affect the system by creating enough directories to reach the 35,000 limit. -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Boost module before version 6.x-1.03 Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Boost module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the Boost module for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Boost module 6.x-1.03 [1] -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- Hans Rossel [2] -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ Mike Carper [3] the module maintainer. -------- CONTACT ------------------------------------------------------------- The security contact for Drupal can be reached at security at drupal.org [4] or via the form at http://drupal.org/contact [5].

by security-news＠drupal.org 30 Sep '09

30 Sep '09

* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-066 * Project: Organic Groups (third-party module) * Version: 5.x, 6.x * Date: 2009-September-30 * Security risk: Moderately Critical * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- The Organic Groups (OG) module provides a way to organize users and content into groups. When displaying group nodes, the module does not properly sanitize all user-entered text, leading to a cross-site scripting (XSS [1]) vulnerability.
