SA-CONTRIB-2009-113 - FAQ - Cross Site Scripting
Security advisories for contributed projects · Drupal 5.x · Drupal 6.x
Drupal Security Team - December 23, 2009 - 18:07

    * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-113
    * Project: FAQ (third-party module)
    * Version: 5.x, 6.x
    * Date: 2009-December-23
    * Security risk: Moderately Critical
    * Exploitable from: Remote
    * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

Description

The Frequently Asked Questions (faq) module allows users, with the
appropriate permissions, to create question and answer pairs which
are displayed on the 'faq' page, and in the random and recent FAQ blocks.
The module does not sanitize some of the user-supplied data before
displaying it, leading to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the attacker must have
a role with the 'administer faq', 'create faq' or 'edit faq' permissions.
If using the FAQ module with the FAQ Ask module, the attacker may also
exploit the vulnerability if they have the 'ask question' permission.


Versions affected

    * FAQ module 5.x-2.13 and prior versions
    * FAQ module 6.x-1.10 and prior versions

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed FAQ module,
there is nothing you need to do.


Solution

Install the latest version:

    * If you use the FAQ module for Drupal 5.x upgrade to FAQ 5.x-2.14
    * If you use the FAQ module for Drupal 6.x upgrade to FAQ 6.x-1.11

See also the FAQ module project page.

SA-CONTRIB-2009-114 - Automated Logout - Cross Site Scripting
Security advisories for contributed projects · Drupal 6.x
Drupal Security Team - December 24, 2009 - 03:46

    * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-114
    * Project: Automated Logout (third-party module)
    * Version: 6.x
    * Date: 2009-December-23
    * Security risk: Moderately Critical
    * Exploitable from: Remote
    * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

Description

This module provides a site administrator the ability to log users out
after a specified time of inactivity. The module does not sanitize some
of the user-supplied data before displaying it, leading to a cross-site scripting
(XSS) vulnerability. Users who can take advantage of this vulnerability
could gain administrator access to a site. This vulnerability is mitigated
by the fact that the attacker must have a role with the 'administer autologout'
permission.


Versions affected

    * Automated Logout module 6.x-1.6 and prior versions on the 6.x-1.x branch
    * Automated Logout module 6.x-2.2 and prior versions on the 6.x-2.x branch

Note that the Drupal 5 version of the Automated Logout module is also affected,
but the attacker must have a role with the 'administer site configuration'
permission. The 'administer site configuration' permission is inherently
unsafe and should only be granted to trusted users; therefore, this issue
is not considered a security vulnerability for Drupal 5
(see http://drupal.org/node/475848).

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Automated Logout
module, there is nothing you need to do.


Solution

Install the latest version:

    * If you use the Automated Logout module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to
either Automated Logout 6.x-1.7 or Automated Logout 6.x-2.3

See also the Automated Logout module project page.
