CVE-2012-1056: The Forward module 6.x-1.x before 6.x-1.21 and 7.x-1.x before 7.x-1.3 for Drupal does not properly enforce...

Security readout for executives and security teams

This vulnerability affects the Drupal Forward module. Certain Forward blocks did not correctly enforce permissions, so a remote attacker could learn node titles through recent-forward, most-forwarded, or dynamic block features. The disclosed impact is limited to title exposure, but that can still reveal sensitive unpublished or access-controlled content names. Exposure is likely limited to Drupal sites using the Forward module in the affected 6.x-1.x or 7.x-1.x ranges, especially where Forward blocks are enabled or visible to untrusted users. Sites not using this module are not implicated by the provided sources. Prioritize remediation for Drupal sites where node titles reveal confidential projects, clients, unpublished content, or internal operations. For ordinary public-content sites, urgency is lower, but upgrading remains appropriate because fixed versions are identified. Mitigation focus: Inventory Drupal sites for the Forward module and its installed version.; Upgrade Forward 6.x-1.x to 6.x-1.21 or later.; Upgrade Forward 7.x-1.x to 7.x-1.3 or later..
