- Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2015-121
- Project: The eXtensible Catalog (XC) Drupal Toolkit (third-party module)
- Version: 6.x, 7.x
- Date: 2015-June-17
- Security risk: 15/25 ( Critical) AC:Basic/A:None/CI:Some/II:Some/E:Theoretical/TD:Default
- Vulnerability: Cross Site Request Forgery
Description
The eXtensible Catalog Drupal Toolkit is a set of Drupal modules to harvest records of the XC Schema format from a Metadata Services Toolkit (MST).
The XC NCIP Provider module doesn't sufficiently protect some URLs against CSRF. A malicious user can cause a user with "administer ncip providers" permission to alter NCIP providers by getting their browser to make a request to a specially-crafted URL.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that only sites that have the XC NCIP Provider module enabled are affected.
