* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2012-103
* Project: Global Redirect [1] (third-party module)
* Version: 6.x, 7.x
* Date: 2012-June-13
* Security risk: Less critical [2]
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Open Redirect
-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------
This module improves SEO and usability of a site by redirecting visitors to
user-friendly and search-engine-friendly URLs.
The module does not sufficiently validate that a destination URL is internal
to the site, allowing an attacker to disguise a malicious destination address
as a query parameter passed to a legitimate site URL.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that a site must have the
"non-clean to clean" redirect enabled; however, this is the default
configuration.
CVE: Requested
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
---------------------------------------------------
* Global Redirect 6.x-1.x versions prior to 6.x-1.4.
* Global Redirect 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.4.
Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Global
Redirect [3] module, there is nothing you need to do.
