* Security risk: Less critical
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Cross site scripting
- ------------DESCRIPTION------------
Message sent from the Shoutbox block, where visitors can quickly post short

- ------------SA-2007-033 - FEATURE - CSRF------------
* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-2007-033
* Project: Feature module (third-party module)
* Version: 4.7.x, 5.x
* Date: 2007-December-05
* Security risk: Not critical
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Cross site request forgery
- ------------DESCRIPTION------------
Feature is a contributed module that lets you organize and maintain a feature
list by category.
The Drupal Forms API protects against cross site request forgeries (CSRF),
where a malicous site can cause a user to unintentionally submit a form to a
site where he is authenticated. The feature deletion form does not follow the
standard Forms API submission model and is therefore not protected against this
type of attack. A CSRF attack may result in the deletion of features.
To learn more about Cross Site Request Forgeries please read this article [
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_request_forgery ].
- ------------VERSIONS AFFECTED------------
* Feature 4.7.x-dev before December 6, 2007.
* Feature 5.x-dev before December 6, 2007.
- ------------SOLUTION------------
Install the latest version:
* If you use Drupal 4.7.x upgrade to Feature 4.7.x-1.0 [
http://drupal.org/node/198172 ]
* If you use Drupal 5.x upgrade to Feature 5.x-1.0 [
http://drupal.org/node/198171 ]
