TITLE:
Drupal Sections Module Script Insertion Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA37752

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/37752/

DESCRIPTION:
Justin C. Klein Keane has reported a vulnerability in the Sections
module for Drupal, which can be exploited by malicious users to
conduct script insertion attacks.

Input passed via section names is not properly sanitised before being
displayed to the user. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML
and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session
in context of an affected site when the malicious data is being
viewed.

Successful exploitation requires "administer sections" permissions.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 6.x-1.3 or
5.x-1.3.

SOLUTION:
Sections 6.x:
Update to version 6.x-1.3.
http://drupal.org/node/660796

Sections 5.x:
Update to version 5.x-1.3.
http://drupal.org/node/660794

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Justin C. Klein Keane
