DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in the Linkit module for Drupal,
which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially
sensitive information.
The security issue is caused due to the application not properly
restricting access when searching for entities and can be exploited
to view information about the contents of otherwise restricted
nodes.
Successful exploitation requires that a module to limit access to
content is used.
The security issue is reported in versions prior to 7.x-2.2.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 7.x-2.3.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
The vendor credits PAULAP.
