   * Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2014-076
   * Project: Fasttoggle [1]     (third-party module)
   * Version: 7.x
   * Date: 2014-August-06
   * Security risk: 11/25 ( Moderately Critical)
     AC:Basic/A:None/CI:None/II:None/E:Exploit/TD:25 [2]
   * Vulnerability: Access bypass

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

This module enables you to quickly toggle various user, node and field
related settings via ajax links.

The recent 7.x-1.3 and 1.4 releases of the module include a rewrite of the
access control which doesn't correctly implement support for the user status
(allow/block) link.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the administrator must
enable the link in the fasttoggle configuration and allow user profiles to be
viewed by anonymous or logged in users. For user 1 to be affected, the
administrator must also enable the fasttoggle setting that allows that
account to be blocked via fasttoggle.

All uses of the Fasttoggle module are logged, so any invocations of the
exploit will be recorded. Accounts can only be blocked or unblocked via the
exploit.


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

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

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

module,
       there is nothing you need to do.

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

Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Fasttoggle module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Fasttoggle
     7.x-1.5 [5]
