* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2017-067 * Project: Entity reference [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x * Date: 2017-August-16 * Security risk: 12/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:None/CI:Some/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:Default [2] * Vulnerability: Access bypass
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
The entity reference module provides a field type that can reference arbitrary entities.
In a vulnerable configuration, an attacker could determine the titles of nodes they do not have access to.
This is mitigated as only entity reference fields using the "simple" entity selector are vulnerable, and the attack is not possible if any access control (i.e. node access) is in place (the attacker's role is missing only the "access content" permission to be able to view the content.)
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* entityreference 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.5.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Entity reference [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
