   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2016-003
   * Project: Open Atrium [1]     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2016-January-27
   * Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:None/A:None/CI:Some/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:Uncommon [2]
   * Vulnerability: Access bypass

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

Open Atrium allows you to control access via a hierarchy of public and
private spaces and sub-spaces.  If a public sub-space is created within a
private parent-space, the content nodes of the public sub-space are
accessible to users who are not members of the parent private space.

This issue only affects sites that use private sub-spaces.


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

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

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

   * Open Atrium 7.x-2.x versions prior to 7.x-2.53.

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

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

   * Upgrade to the latest version, 7.x-2.53 [5]

If you are not able to fully upgrade to the latest version, ensure private
sub-spaces are directly marked as private and are not seen publicly in a
private parent space.

Also see the Open Atrium [6] project page.
