* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-150 * Project: CMS Updater [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x * Date: 2015-September-16 * Security risk: 12/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:None/II:Some/E:Proof/TD:All [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting, Access bypass
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
CMS Updater allows to update Drupal core automatically with a subscription service.
*Access bypass * The module does not sufficiently protect the settings page allowing any user with the permission "access administration pages" to change settings.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have the "access administration pages" permission on the site.
*Cross Site Scripting (XSS)* The module does not sanitize user provided text on the configuration page thereby exposing a cross site scripting vulnerability.
There are no mitigating factors for the cross site scripting.
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* CMS Updater 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.3.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed CMS Updater [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version:
* If you use the CMS Updater module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to CMS Updater 7.x-1.3 [5]
