Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2012-2708 is an authenticated cross-site scripting issue in the Drupal Hostmaster/Aegir module. A user with specific permissions could place script or HTML into a provision task log message. The business risk is mainly compromise of administrator browser sessions or misleading actions when privileged users view affected logs. Exposure is likely limited to Drupal sites using Hostmaster/Aegir 6.x-1.x before 6.x-1.9 where authenticated users can influence Drush provision task log messages and privileged users view those logs. Prioritize remediation for any internet-facing or multi-user Aegir administration environment. This is not marked as actively exploited in the supplied sources, but admin-session exposure makes delayed remediation unnecessary risk. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Hostmaster/Aegir to 6.x-1.9 or later if still running an affected version.; Review the linked Drupal and Aegir guidance before applying production changes.; Restrict permissions that allow users to create or influence provision task logs..
