   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-155
   * Project: Entity Registration [1]     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2015-October-07
   * Security risk: 14/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:Basic/A:None/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:Uncommon [2]
   * Vulnerability: Information Disclosure

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

This module enables you to manage registrations for events.

The module doesn't sufficiently protect information about who is registered
to attend specific events when anonymous users are granted a permission that
is commonly recommended when allowing anonymous registrations.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that anonymous users must have
the permission "Register other accounts."


-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED
--------------------------------------------

   * /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in
     accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./

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

   * Entity Registration 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.5.

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

-------- SOLUTION
------------------------------------------------------------

Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Entity Registration module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to
     Entity Registration 7.x-1.6 [5]

/Note on releases: the security bug was fixed in the 7.x-1.5 release, however
that release included many other bug fixes and features. The 7.x-1.6 release
is intended to fix a critical, non-security bug in the 7.x-1.5 release./
Update permissions configuration:

   * Remove the "Register other accounts" permission for anonymous users or
     other unprivileged roles
   * If needed, add the "Register Self" permission for anonymous users and
     other unprivileged roles

Also see the Entity Registration [6] project page.
