* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-081 * Project: Petition [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x * Date: 2015-March-25 * Security risk: 14/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2] * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

-------- DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------

The Petition module enables you to create petitions which users may sign.

The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize user supplied text in some administration pages, thereby exposing a Cross Site Scripting vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "create petition".

-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED --------------------------------------------

* /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./

-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED ---------------------------------------------------

* Petition 6.x-1.x versions prior to 6.x-1.3.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Petition [4] module, there is nothing you need to do.

-------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------

Install the latest version:

* If you use the Petition module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Petition 6.x-1.3 [5]

Also see the Petition [6] project page.
