Bug 414507 (CVE-2012-1588) – <www-apps/drupal-7.14: Multiple Vulnerabilties (CVE-2012-{1588,1589,1590,1591,2153})

• Product: Gentoo Security
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Michael Harrison 2012-05-03 19:28:48 UTC]

1) A weakness is caused due to inefficient text matching pattern and can be exploited to exhaust memory or cause a high CPU load via specially crafted strings passed to the filter system e.g. when posting comments or forum topics.

2) An error due to the application not properly validating the destination for submitted forms can be exploited to redirect submission of sensitive data (e.g. login credentials) to a malicious website.

3) An error due to the application not properly validating user permissions when displaying the forum overview page can be exploited to expose certain metadata of unpublished forum posts.

4) An error due to the application not properly validating user access to cached derivatives of users' private images can be exploited to gain access to derivatives of otherwise restricted images.

5) An error due to the application not properly validating user access to each node in the list of nodes can be exploited to gain access to otherwise restricted nodes.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires the "view content overview" permission and a contributed node access module.

The vulnerabilities are reported in 7.x versions prior to 7.13.

CVE-2012-1589 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2012-1589):
  Open redirect vulnerability in the Form API in Drupal 7.x before 7.13 allows
  remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct
  phishing attacks via crafted parameters in a destination URL.

CVE-2012-2153 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2012-2153):
  Drupal 7.x before 7.14 does not properly restrict access to nodes in a list
  when using a "contributed node access module," which allows remote
  authenticated users with the "Access the content overview page" permission
  to read all published nodes by accessing the admin/content page.

CVE-2012-1591 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2012-1591):
  The image module in Drupal 7.x before 7.14 does not properly check
  permissions when caching derivative image styles of private images, which
  allows remote attackers to read private image styles.

CVE-2012-1590 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2012-1590):
  The forum list in Drupal 7.x before 7.14 does not properly check user
  permissions for unpublished forum posts, which allows remote authenticated
  users to obtain sensitive information such as the post title via the forum
  overview page.

CVE-2012-1588 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2012-1588):
  Algorithmic complexity vulnerability in the _filter_url function in the text
  filtering system (modules/filter/filter.module) in Drupal 7.x before 7.14
  allows remote authenticated users with certain roles to cause a denial of
  service (CPU consumption) via a long email address.
