* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-146 * Project: Twitter [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 7.x * Date: 2015-September-09 * Security risk: 12/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:None/II:Some/E:Exploit/TD:Uncommon [2] * Vulnerability: Access bypass
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
This module enables you to pull in public tweets from Twitter accounts, post messages to Twitter to announce content changes, and authenticate using Twitter.
The module doesn't sufficiently check for access when using the Twitter Post submodule to post messages to Twitter and allows a tweet to be posted to any authenticated account, not just one that the user owns.
The module also doesn't sufficiently check for access when listing a user's connected Twitter accounts, allowing any user to change the options for any other account, including deleting the attached Twitter account.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "post to twitter" in order to post to Twitter, and have either the permission "add twitter accounts" or "add authenticated twitter accounts" in order to access the accounts list.
