SA-CONTRIB-2013-009 - Keyboard Shortcut Utility - Access Bypass - module unsupported

The Keyboard Shortcut Utility module enables you to create keyboard shortcuts on your website. You can create a shortcut to go to a page (internal or external) or call a JavaScript function.

The module doesn’t sufficiently check node access to view nodes for users who have “view shortcuts” permission. It also doesn’t check node access to view, edit, or delete nodes for users who have the “admin shortcuts” permission.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission “view shortcuts” or “admin shortcuts”.
