From the upstream advisory at $URL:

SA-CORE-2011-002 - Drupal core - Access bypass
Posted by Drupal Security Team on June 30, 2011 at 12:13am

    * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CORE-2011-002
    * Project: Drupal core
    * Version: 7.x
    * Date: 2011-JUNE-29
    * Security risk: Highly critical
    * Exploitable from: Remote
    * Vulnerability: Access bypass

Description
Access bypass in node listings

Listings showing nodes but not JOINing the node table show all nodes regardless of restrictions imposed by the node_access system. In core, this affects the taxonomy and the forum subsystem.

This issue only affects sites using a node access module such as content access or forum access. If you do not use any node access system then your site is not affected by this vulnerability. It is still considered a best practice to run the latest release and all site owners are encouraged to upgrade when they can regardless of whether or not they are affected.

Note that fixing this issue in contributed modules requires a backwards-compatible API change for modules listing nodes. See http://drupal.org/node/1204572 for more details.

This issue affects Drupal 7.x only.
Versions affected

    * Drupal 7.0, 7.1 and 7.2.

Solution

Install the latest version:

    * If you are running Drupal 7.x then upgrade to Drupal 7.3 or 7.4.
