------------SA-2008-075 - VIEWS - SQL INJECTION------------

* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-2008-075

* Project: Views

* Versions: 6.x

* Date: 2008-December-16

* Security risk: Moderately critical

* Exploitable from: Remote

* Vulnerability: SQL injection

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

The Views module provides a flexible method for Drupal site designers to control how lists of content are presented.

When using an exposed filter on CCK [ http://drupal.org/project/cck ] text fields with allowed values, Views does not filter the data correctly. This may allow malicious users to conduct SQL injection [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection ] attacks against the site.

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

* Versions of Views for Drupal 6.x prior to 6.x-2.2

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the Views module, there is nothing you need to do.

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

Install the latest version.

* If you use Views for Drupal 6.x upgrade to 6.x-2.2 [ http://drupal.org/node/347831 ]

Also see the Views project page [ http://drupal.org/project/views ].
