NONE Summary
Drupal 5.x before 5.19 and 6.x before 6.13 does not properly sanitize failed login attempts for pages that contain a sortable table, which includes the username and password in links that can be read from (1) the HTTP referer header of external web sites that are visited from those links or (2) when page caching is enabled, the Drupal page cache.

NASL family Debian Local Security Checks NASL id DEBIAN_DSA-1930.NASL description Several vulnerabilities have been found in drupal6, a fully-featured content management framework. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems : - CVE-2009-2372 Gerhard Killesreiter discovered a flaw in the way user signatures are handled. It is possible for a user to inject arbitrary code via a crafted user signature. (SA-CORE-2009-007) - CVE-2009-2373 Mark Piper, Sven Herrmann and Brandon Knight discovered a cross-site scripting issue in the forum module, which could be exploited via the tid parameter. (SA-CORE-2009-007) - CVE-2009-2374 Sumit Datta discovered that certain drupal6 pages leak sensitive information such as user credentials. (SA-CORE-2009-007) Several design flaws in the OpenID module have been fixed, which could lead to cross-site request forgeries or privilege escalations. Also, the file upload function does not process all extensions properly leading to the possible execution of arbitrary code. (SA-CORE-2009-008) The oldstable distribution (etch) does not contain drupal6. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 44795 published 2010-02-24 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2010-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/44795 title Debian DSA-1930-1 : drupal6 - several vulnerabilities code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from Debian Security Advisory DSA-1930.

User signatures have no separate input format, they use the format of the comment with which they are displayed. A user will no longer be able to edit a comment when an administrator changes the comment's input format to a format that is not accessible to the user. However they will still be able to modify their signature, which will then be processed by the new input format. If the new format is very permissive, via their signature, the user may be able to insert arbitrary HTML and script code into pages or, when the PHP filter is enabled for the new format, execute PHP code. This issue affects Drupal 6.x only. When an anonymous user fails to login due to mistyping his username or password, and the page he is on contains a sortable table, the (incorrect) username and password are included in links on the table. If the user visits these links the password may then be leaked to external sites via the HTTP referer.
