By Drupal Security Team on
- Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-097
- Project: Imagemenu (third-party module)
- Version: 5.x, 6.x
- Date: 2010-September-29
- Security risk: Less critical
- Exploitable from: Remote
- Vulnerability: Cross-Site Scripting, Cross-site Request Forgery
Description
The Imagemenu module allows users to create and maintain image based menus.
The Drupal 5 branch of this module contains a Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability which could allow a malicious user to trick an administrator into unintentionally enabling or disabling menu items provided by this module.
The Drupal 6 branch of this module does not properly sanitize some user-supplied menu and menu item properties, leading to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. The risk is mitigated by the fact that the "administer imagemenu" permission is required in order to exploit this vulnerability.
Versions affected
- Imagemenu for Drupal 6 prior to 6.x-1.3
- Imagemenu for Drupal 5 prior to 5.x-1.2
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Imagemenu module, there is nothing you need to do.
Solution
Install the latest version:
- If you use the Imagemenu module for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Imagemenu 6.x-1.3
- If you use the Imagemenu module for Drupal 5.x upgrade to Imagemenu 5.x-1.2
See also the Imagemenu project page.
