By Drupal Security Team on
- Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2014-105
- Project: OG Menu (third-party module)
- Version: 7.x
- Date: 2014-October-29
- Security risk: 13/25 ( Moderately Critical) AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:All
- Vulnerability: Access bypass, Information Disclosure
Description
OG Menu allows using menus within Organic Groups.
The permissions for accessing the module settings were to broad, possibly granting access to users who would normally not be able to change the OG Menu configuration.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission "access administration pages".

- CVE-2014-8734
Versions affected
- OG Menu 7.x-2.x versions prior to 7.x-2.2.

Solution
Install the latest version of the 7.x-2.x branch:
- If you use the OG Menu module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to OG Menu 7.x-2.2
The OG Menu 7.x-3.x branch is not affected.
