   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2017-005
   * Project:
     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2017-January-11
   * Security risk: 23/25 ( Highly Critical)
     AC:None/A:User/CI:All/II:All/E:Exploit/TD:All [1]
   * Vulnerability: Arbitrary PHP code execution

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

The Mailjet module integrates with a 3rd party system to deliver
site-generated emails, including newsletters, system notifications, etc.

The Mailjet module included v5.2.8 of the PHPMailer library in its "includes"
directory. Per PSA-2016-004 [2], this version of the PHPMailer library was
vulnerable to PHP code execution.

Per Drupal.org policy, 3rd party code should not be stored [3] in drupal.org
repositories.

Updating this module will require manual actions to replace the PHPMailer
library as described in the README.txt file included in the release.
