SA-CONTRIB-2012-093 - Node Embed - Access Bypass

Node Embed gives content editors an interface for selecting and embedding nodes using a WYSIWYG editor. The interface for selecting nodes is a page that had no access check, allowing users to view node titles they might not have access to. This issue only affects your site if you have unpublished nodes or use a node access module to restrict content access from some users.

CVE: CVE-2012-2722

Versions affected

• Node Embed 6.x-1.x versions prior to 6.x-1.5.
• Node Embed 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.0.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Node Embed module, there is nothing you need to do.

Solution

• If you use the Node Embed module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Node Embed 6.x-1.5
• If you use the Node Embed module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Node Embed 7.x-1.0
