By Drupal Security Team on
- Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2009-020
- Project: Printer, e-mail and PDF versions (third-party module)
- Version: 5.x, 6.x
- Date: 2009-April-15
- Security risk: Moderately critical
- Exploitable from: Remote
- Vulnerability: Cross-site scripting (XSS)
Description
The Printer, e-mail and PDF versions ("Print") module provides printer-friendly versions of content. The module does not correctly escape content titles, enabling malicious users to insert arbitrary HTML and scripts into certain pages. Such a cross site scripting (XSS) attack against sufficiently privileged users may lead to administrator access to the site.
Versions affected
- Versions of Printer, e-mail and PDF versions for Drupal 5.x prior to 5.x-4.5
- Versions of Printer, e-mail and PDF versions for Drupal 6.x prior to 6.x-1.5
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Printer, e-mail and PDF versions module, there is nothing you need to do.
Solution
Install the latest version:
- If you use Printer, e-mail and PDF versions for Drupal 5.x upgrade to Printer, e-mail and PDF versions 5.x-4.5
- If you use Printer, e-mail and PDF versions for Drupal 5.x upgrade to Printer, e-mail and PDF versions 6.x-1.5
