* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2016-020 * Project: Features [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x * Date: 2016-April-13 * Security risk: 7/25 ( Less Critical) AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:None/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Request Forgery, Denial of Service
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
This module enables you to organize and export configuration data.
The module doesn't sufficiently protect the admin/structure/features/cleanup path with a token. If an attacker can trick an admin with the "manage features" permission to request a special URL, it could lead to clearing the cache repeatedly and a Denial of Service (DoS) attack.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the admin with the "manage features" permissions must be logged in when they request the special URL.
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* Features 7.x-2.x versions prior to 7.x-2.9. * Features 7.x-1.x which is no longer supported.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Features [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version:
* If you use the Features module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Features 7.x-2.9 [5]
Also see the Features [6] project page.
