View online: http://drupal.org/node/1922410 * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2013-018 * Project: Taxonomy Manager [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 7.x * Date: 2013-February-20 * Security risk: Moderately critical [2] * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross Site Request Forgery -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- The Taxonomy Manager provides an advanced interface for administrating taxonomy vocabularies. The module doesn't sufficiently verify POST requests thereby exposing a Cross Site Request Forgery vulnerability. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must trick a user with 'administer taxonomy' permissions onto a prepared page with a site-specific malicious HTML form submission. -------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED -------------------------------------------- * /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./ -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Taxonomy Manager 6.x-2.x versions prior to 6.x-2.2. * Taxonomy Manager 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.0-rc1. Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Taxonomy Manager [4] module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the Taxonomy Manager module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Taxonomy Manager 6.x-2.3 [5] * If you use the Taxonomy Manager module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Taxonomy Manager 7.x-1.0-rc2 [6] Also see the Taxonomy Manager [7] project page. -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * Matthias Hutterer [8] the module maintainer -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Matthias Hutterer [9] the module maintainer -------- COORDINATED BY ------------------------------------------------------ * Klaus Purer [10] of the Drupal Security Team * Greg Knaddison [11] of the Drupal Security Team -------- CONTACT AND MORE INFORMATION ---------------------------------------- The Drupal security team can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the contact form at http://drupal.org/contact [12].
