Description

This module enables you to organize and export configuration data.

The module doesn't sufficiently protect the admin/structure/features/cleanup path with a token. If an attacker can trick an admin with the "manage features" permission to request a special URL, it could lead to clearing the cache repeatedly and a Denial of Service (DoS) attack.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the admin with the "manage features" permissions must be logged in when they request the special URL.
