- Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2013-056
- Project: Stage File Proxy (third-party module)
- Version: 7.x
- Date: 2013-July-10th
- Security risk: Moderately critical
- Exploitable from: Remote
- Vulnerability: Multiple vulnerabilities
Description
This module saves time and disk space by sending requests to your development environment's files directory to the production environment and making a copy of the production file in your development site.
An attacker could make repeated requests to the server, even over a long period, which would degrade the performance of all file handling and potentially prevent certain file operations.
