By Drupal Security Team on
- DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-107
- Project: Services (third-party module)
- Version: 6.x
- Date: 2010-Dec-01
- Security risk: Critical
- Exploitable from: Remote
- Vulnerability: Access Bypass
Description
The Services module allows users to expose Drupal functionality to remote users. Services provides the ability for users to update nodes contained in a drupal install via the services api. When using using the node.save service it is possible for a user to supply a specifically crafted node or format type and circumvent access control checks.
This only affects sites that are using the node.save service.
Versions affected
- Services module for Drupal 6.x versions prior to 6.x-2.3.
- Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Services module, there is nothing you need to do.
Solution
Install the latest version:
- If you use the Services module for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Services 6.x-2.3
