DESCRIPTION:
A weakness has been reported in the Search Autocomplete module for
Drupal, which can be exploited by malicious users to bypass certain
security restrictions.

The weakness is caused due to the application not properly verifying
access restrictions when displaying the administration interface of
the module and can be exploited to disclose and change certain
administrative settings.

The weakness is reported in 7.x-2.x versions prior to 7.x-2.4.

SOLUTION:
