   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-025
   * Project: Patterns [1]     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2015-January-21
   * Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:Basic/A:None/CI:None/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
   * Vulnerability: Cross Site Request Forgery

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

Patterns module manages and automates site configuration. Site configurations
stored in XML or YAML are called Patterns, and these are easy to read,
modify, manage & share and can be executed manually or as a part of an
automated web site deployment.

Some links were not protected against CSRF. A malicious user could cause an
administrator to restore, publish and unpublish patterns by getting the
administrator's browser to make a request to a specially-crafted URL.
