Discussion

Drupal Project issue tracking Security Bypass and Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

The 'Project issue tracking' module for Drupal is prone to a security-bypass and a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to properly validate user credentials and sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker may leverage the cross-site scripting issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may let the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.

The attacker may leverage the security-bypass issue to reset an arbitrary user's password and gain access to the user's account.

These issues affect 'Project issue tracking' 5.x (prior to 5.x-2.3).
