OSU Drupal Distribution Update

An update was released to our development environment on Tuesday, August 30th, 2016 and will be released to production sites on Tuesday, September 6th, barring any security/emergency updates. The following updates have been applied:

Major Version Upgrade

  • None

Drupal Core Bug Fix/Security Updates

  • None

New Modules Added

  • None

Contributed Module Updates

  • Webform 7.x-4.14:
    • This release contains two updates that have been rolled into one
    • 7.x-4.13 The update of most concern for us is the one that involves conditionals. Users can now actually nest conditional statements inside of other conditional statements. This is pretty exciting, but it also opens the door for some potential confusion. We ask of anyone who is using conditionals to give their form(s) a test in their dev environment to make sure everything is working correctly.
      • Additionally, there are more than ten other updates that have been introduced. For more information, see the referenced release notes.
    • 7.x-4.14 was not a security release, but there were two big security improvements that were added to let users better understand the security ramifications of two existing features
      • Changing disabled components. The description of the disabled option now clarifies that it is still possible for a user to use developer or JavaScript tools to modify the value of a disabled component. This is by design and is considered desirable. To store a submission value that cannot be changed by the user, use a hidden component with the “secure value” option.EntityInterface added to allow programming interfaces
      • Submission results downloaded as delimited text files (e.g. CSV). Some spreadsheets interpret cell data within a delimited text file as a formula, leading to a formula injection vulnerability in the spreadsheet. Data submitted by untrusted users that may be opened by a spreadsheet should be downloaded in Microsoft Excel format rather than delimited text format. The Webform submission download page makes this clear.
      • Additionally there are more than ten other updates that have been introduced. For more information, see the referenced release notes

Drupal Release 7.41-cws-1.4.0

The Drupal 7.41-cws-1.4.0 update was released to our development environment on Wednesday, January 20th, and will be released to production sites on Tuesday, January 26th.  The following updates have been applied:

Major Version Upgrade

  • None

Drupal Core Bug Fix/Security Updates

  • Field Group: 7.x-1.4 – > 7.x-1.5

    • Moderate Security Issue: When adding an HTML element as a field group, the user had the option of adding custom HTML attributes on the group. Via this option, a malicious user could embed scripts within the page, resulting in a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This was mitigated by the fact that the attacker would have to be able to configure field display settings, which usually needs a higher level permission.
    • 18 additional fixes/updates. View the Field Group Release Notes for detailed information

New Modules Added

  • None

Contributed Module Updates

OSU Module Updates

  • Highlights: Updated view to use caching.
  • Live Feeds: Fix underline for calendar months in Firefox 40 and above.

OSU Theme Updates
