* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2016-007 * Project: Node.js integration [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x, 8.x * Date: 2016-February-17 * Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:None/CI:Some/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2] * Vulnerability: Information Disclosure
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
This module provides an API that other modules can use to add realtime capabilities to Drupal, specifically enabling pushing updates to open connected clients.
The module doesn't disconnect unauthenticated sockets, allowing those sockets to receive broadcast messages. For sites that only serve authenticated pages, or only allows Node.js connections from authenticated users, the expectation is that only authenticated Drupal users will see broadcast messages.
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* Node.js 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.11. * Node.js 8.x-1.x beta versions prior to 8.x-1.0.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Node.js integration [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------

* If you use the Node.js module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Node.js 7.x-1.11. [5] * If you use the beta Node.js module for Drupal 8.x, upgrade to Node.js 8.x-1.0. [6]
