• Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2013-061
  • Project: Flippy (third-party module)
  • Version: 7.x
  • Date: 2013-July-31
  • Security risk: Less critical
  • Exploitable from: Remote
  • Vulnerability: Access bypass

Description

This module enables you to generate previous/next links for content types.

The module doesn't sufficiently enforce node access when generating previous/next links. A user may be presented with a link (including alias if one is set) but will not be able to view the node content.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission to access content.
