* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2012-044 * Project: Contact Forms [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x * Date: 2012-March-28 * Security risk: Moderately critical [2] * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- This module expands the features of the site wide contact form. It eliminates the drop down category menu by generating a clean looking contact form with a unique path, for each of the contact form categories. The module doesn't sufficiently filter user text of the page title and additional information, leading to a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "administer site-wide contact form" and the core contact form needs to be enabled. -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Contact forms 6.x-1.x versions prior to 6.x-1.13 [3]. Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Contact Forms [4] module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the Contact Forms module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to 6.x-1.13 [5] Also see the Contact Forms [6] project page. -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * Ivo Van Geertruyen [7] of the Drupal Security Team -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Geoff Davies [8] the module maintainer -------- COORDINATED BY ------------------------------------------------------ * Greg Knaddison [9] of the Drupal Security Team -------- CONTACT AND MORE INFORMATION ---------------------------------------- The Drupal security team can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the contact form at http://drupal.org/contact [10].
