* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2011-033 * Project: iWebkit [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x * Date: 2011-August-03 * Security risk: Moderately critical [2] * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

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

iWebKit is a web toolkit designed to create iPhone and iPod touch compatible websites and webapps.

iWebkit does not properly sanitize menu links when displayed, allowing a malicious user to embed scripts in menu items, thus creating a cross site scripting (XSS [3]) vulnerability that may lead to an unauthorized user gaining full administrative access.

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

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

* iWebkit theme 6.x-2.x versions prior to 6.x-2.2.

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

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

Install the latest version:

* If you use the iWebkit [5] theme for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to iWebkit 6.x-2.2 [6].

See also the iWebkit [7] project page.

-------- REPORTED BY ---------------------------------------------------------

* Thomas Turnbull (tom_o_t [8])

-------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------

* Sumit Kataria (sumitk [9]), the theme maintainer
