    Package : drupal6
    Vulnerability : multiple
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    Debian Bug : 526378

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in drupal, a web content management system.

    pod.Edge discovered a cross-site scripting vulnerability due that can be triggered when some browsers interpret UTF-8 strings as UTF-7 if they
    appear before the generated HTML document defines its Content-Type.
    This allows a malicious user to execute arbitrary javascript in the
    context of the web site if they're allowed to post content.

    Moritz Naumann discovered an information disclosure vulnerability. If
    a user is tricked into visiting the site via a specially crafted URL
    and then submits a form (such as the search box) from that page, the information in their form submission may be directed to a third-party
    site determined by the URL and thus disclosed to the third party. The
    third party site may then execute a cross-site request forgery attack
    against the submitted form.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 6.6-3lenny1.

    The old stable distribution (etch) does not contain drupal and is not
    affected.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 6.11-1

    We recommend that you upgrade your drupal6 package.
