Description

UPDATE (2017-07-12): This SA originally recommended version 2.6, but it was incorrectly tagged. We've updated the SA to recommend version 2.7. Sorry for the confusion!

DrupalChat allows visitors of your Drupal site to chat with each other privately or together in a public chatroom.

The module did not confirm the validity of a chat request, resulting in a Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability which enables an attacker to trick a user to send arbitrary chat messages to any user.

The module did not filter administrator provided text, leading to a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

  • A CVE identifier will be requested, and added upon issuance, in accordance with Drupal Security Team processes.
