CVE-2007-6752
CVSS v2.0
6.8
Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Drupal versions 7.12 and earlier
Description
A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) issue allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users for requests that end a session via the "user/logout" URI. The vendor disputes the significance of this issue, considering the security benefit against platform complexity and performance impact, and concludes that a change to the logout behavior is not planned because for most sites it is not worth the trade-off.
Recommendations
For versions 7.12 and earlier, consider disabling the logout functionality via the "user/logout" URI as a temporary workaround to minimize the risk of exploitation.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
