[security-news AT drupal.org]

View online: https://drupal.org/node/2158651

   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2013-098
   * Project: Ubercart [1] (third-party module)
   * Version: 6.x, 7.x
   * Date: 2013-12-18
   * Security risk: Less critical [2]
   * Exploitable from: Remote
   * Vulnerability: Session Fixation

-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------

The Ubercart module for Drupal provides a shopping cart and e-commerce
features for Drupal.

The module doesn't sufficiently protect against session fixation attacks when
a user is automatically logged in to a newly created account during checkout.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have access
to the original session ID of the victim, and that the "Log in new customers
after checkout" option must be enabled.


-------- CVE IDENTIFIER(S) ISSUED
--------------------------------------------

   * /A CVE identifier [3] will be requested, and added upon issuance, in
     accordance with Drupal Security Team processes./

-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
---------------------------------------------------

   * Ubercart 6.x-2.x versions prior to 6.x-2.13.
   * Ubercart 7.x-3.x versions prior to 7.x-3.6.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Ubercart [4]
module, there is nothing you need to do.

-------- SOLUTION
------------------------------------------------------------

Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Ubercart module for Drupal 6.x, upgrade to Ubercart
     6.x-2.13 [5]
   * If you use the Ubercart module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Ubercart  
7.x-3.6
