* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2012-131 * Project: Email Field [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 7.x * Date: 2012-August-29 * Security risk: Less critical [2] * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Access bypass
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
The email module provides a field type (CCK / FieldAPI) for storing email addresses. Furthermore, it provides a formatter to output the email address as a link to a contact form. The contact form formatter allows a site visitor to email the stored address without letting them see what that e-mail address is.
The module didn't sufficiently check access for the contact form page, allowing a site visitor to email the stored address on the entity without having access to the entity itself.
CVE: Requested
