View online: https://drupal.org/node/2129381

   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2013-088
   * Project: Secure Pages [1] (third-party module)
   * Version: 6.x
   * Date: 2013-November-06
   * Security risk: Less critical [2]
   * Exploitable from: Remote
   * Vulnerability: Missing Encryption of Sensitive Data

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

The Secure Pages module manages redirects between HTTP and HTTPS pages.

A flaw in the URL path matching could lead some pages and forms to be
transmitted via plain HTTP, even if the administrator intended those pages to
use HTTPS. This flaw may surface either due to a malicious user enticing a
user to land on a specially constructed page or through normal interactions
with the site.

     accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./

   * Secure Pages 6.x-2.x versions prior to 6.x-2.0.

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

-------- SOLUTION

Pages
