* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2014-064 * Project: Course [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 7.x * Date: 2014-June-18 * Security risk: Moderately critical [2] * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Access bypass
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
This module enables you to create e-learning courses with any number of requirements for completion. A "Course object" is a relationship entity between a Course and a learning object, such as a Node.
The module doesn't sufficiently check access on Course object edit forms. The configuration options of any Course object are visible to any user including the anonymous user.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that while the form and its configuration options can be viewed, no changes can be saved.
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* Course 6.x-1.x versions prior to 6.x-1.1. * Course 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.2.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Course [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
