Message-Id: <20121003172807.1794B108052@www2.drupal.org> Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2012 17:28:07 +0000 (UTC) From: security-news@...pal.org To: security-news@...pal.org Subject: [Security-news] SA-CONTRIB-2012-149 - Hostip - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) View online: http://drupal.org/node/1802218 * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2012-149 * Project: Hostip [1] (third-party module) * Version: 6.x, 7.x * Date: 2012-October-03 * Security risk: Moderately critical [2] * Exploitable from: Remote * Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting -------- DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------- Hostip enables you to query the http://www.hostip.info/ [3] API to get the country / state information based on the user's IP address or a specific IP passed to it. The module fails to sanitize data retrieved from an untrusted third party source, thereby exposing an arbitrary script injection vulnerability (XSS). This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have either gained access to that third party source or use techniques such as DNS spoofing in order to inject malicious data. CVE: Requested -------- VERSIONS AFFECTED --------------------------------------------------- * Hostip 6.x-2.x versions prior to 6.x-2.2. * Hostip 7.x-2.x versions prior to 7.x-2.2. Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Hostip [4] module, there is nothing you need to do. -------- SOLUTION ------------------------------------------------------------ Install the latest version: * If you use the Hostip module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Hostip 6.x-1.2 [5] * If you use the Hostip module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Hostip 7.x-1.2 [6] Also see the Hostip [7] project page. -------- REPORTED BY --------------------------------------------------------- * Klaus Purer [8] of the Drupal Security Team -------- FIXED BY ------------------------------------------------------------ * Vaibhav Jain [9] the module maintainer -------- COORDINATED BY ------------------------------------------------------ * Klaus Purer [10] of the Drupal Security Team -------- CONTACT AND MORE INFORMATION ---------------------------------------- The Drupal security team can be reached at security at drupal.org or via the contact form at http://drupal.org/contact [11].
