* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2016-046 * Project: Hosting [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x * Date: 2016-August-17 * Security risk: 9/25 ( Less Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:Uncommon [2] * Vulnerability: Access bypass
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
The Hosting module is a core component of the Aegir Hosting System. This install profile, and accompanying suite of modules, is a hosting system that sits alongside a LAMP or LEMP server to create, deploy and manage Drupal sites.
The Hosting module does not sufficiently control access to any custom content types created by the user. The default content types are sufficiently protected.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that on a typical installation the users who have access normally have admin privilege already, and few installations will have created additional custom content types.
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* Hosting 7.x-3.x versions prior to 7.x-3.7.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Hosting [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version:
* If you use the hosting module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to hosting 7.x-3.7 [5]
Also see the Hosting [6] project page.
