Comment: This bulletin contains two (2) Drupal security advisories.
- --------------------------BEGIN INCLUDED TEXT--------------------
* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-037
* Project: Decisions (third-party module)
* Version: 5.x, 6.x
* Date: 2010-April-28
* Security risk: Less Critical
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Access Bypass
- -------- DESCRIPTION
- ---------------------------------------------------------
Decisions is a replacement for poll.module and provides advanced voting
systems and decision-making tools. It aims to enable groups to take decisions
online in a manner that replicates and augments what is possible in
face-to-face meeting. In some listings, the Decisions module does not
construct its SQL query to respect node access restrictions, thus users can
see listings of nodes which should not be accessible to them.
- -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
- ---------------------------------------------------
* Decisions for Drupal 5.x versions prior to 5.x-1.2
* Decisions for Drupal 6.x versions prior to 6.x-1.7
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Decisions [1]
module, there is nothing you need to do.
- -------- SOLUTION
- ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version.
* If you use Decisions for Drupal 5.x upgrade to Decisions 5.x-1.2 [2]
* If you use Decisions for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Decisions 6.x-1.7 [3]

* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-038
* Project: Privatemsg (third-party module)
* Version: 6.x
* Date: 2010-April-28
* Security risk: Less Critical
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Access Bypass
- -------- DESCRIPTION
- ---------------------------------------------------------
The Privatemsg module allows to send private messages between users.
Additionally, the sub module Privatemsg Email Notification sends e-mail
notification when such a message is sent. The page to configure the template
for these e-mails does not use the correct access permission which allows all
users with the read privatemsg permission to access and alter the settings on
that page.
- -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
- ---------------------------------------------------
* Privatemsg for Drupal 6.x versions prior to 6.x-1.2
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Privatemsg [1]
module, there is nothing you need to do.
- -------- SOLUTION
- ------------------------------------------------------------
Install the latest version.
* If you use Privatemsg for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Privatemsg 6.x-1.2 [2]
