  * Date: 2013-January-30
  * Security risk: Moderately critical [2]

-------- DESCRIPTION

This module creates images of user email addresses and email fields. The

such fields.

node access.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed email2image
[4] module, there is nothing you need to do.

  * If you use the email2image module for Drupal 6.x you should uninstall the
    module
