* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2017-020 * Project: Timezone Detect [1] (third-party module) * Version: 7.x * Date: 2017-February-22 * Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:None/CI:None/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Request Forgery
-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------
This module enables sites to automatically detect and set user timezones via JavaScript.
The module does not sufficiently protect against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF): an attacker could use this vulnerability to manipulate a user's timezone setting. The security implication of this issue depends on the site. It can range from minor annoyance to some level of a bigger bug on a site that relies on the timezone for some more important purpose.
-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------
* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------
* Timezone Detect 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.2.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Timezone Detect [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version:
* If you use the Timezone Detect module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Timezone Detect 7.x-1.2 [5]
Also see the Timezone Detect [6] project page.
