  * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-056
  * Project: User Queue (third-party module)
  * Versions: 6.x
  * Date: 2010-May-19
  * Security risk: Less Critical
  * Exploitable from: Remote
  * Vulnerability: Cross-site Request Forgery

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

The User Queue module allows you to create multiple queues, add users to
them, and order the users within the queue. The module is vulnerable to
cross-site request forgeries (CSRF [1]) via the URL used to delete users from
the queue. A user with "administer user queues" permission could be
manipulated into requesting this URL and removing any user from the queue.

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

  * User Queue module for Drupal 6.x version prior to 6.x-1.1.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed User Queue
module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION  
------------------------------------------------------------

Install the latest version.

  * If you use the User Queue module for Drupal 6.x upgrade to User Queue
    6.x-1.1 [2]

See also the User Queue project page [3].
-------- REPORTED BY
