* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-029
* Project: Keys (third-party module)
* Version: 6.x
* Date: 2010-March-17
* Security risk: Less Critical
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Cross-site Request Forgery
-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------
The Keys module provides management of various API keys. The module is
vulnerable to cross-site request forgeries (CSRF [1]) via the keys delete
form. This would allow a malicious user to trick an admin with the
"administer keys" permission into deleting keys by directing them to the url
via link or image src, etc.
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
---------------------------------------------------
* Keys for Drupal 6.x prior to Keys 6.x-2.0
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Keys module
for Drupal 6.x, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION
------------------------------------------------------------
Upgrade to the latest version:
* If you use Keys for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Keys 6.x-2.0 [2] or simply
disable the Keys module. Be sure to backup saved keys prior to upgrade.
See also the Keys project page [3].
-------- REPORTED BY

-------- FIXED BY
------------------------------------------------------------
James Jeffery [5], Keys module maintainer.
