The eXtensible Catalog (XC) Drupal Toolkit - Critical - Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) - SA-CONTRIB-2015-121

The eXtensible Catalog Drupal Toolkit is a set of Drupal modules to harvest records of the XC Schema format from a Metadata Services Toolkit (MST).

The XC NCIP Provider module doesn’t sufficiently protect some URLs against CSRF. A malicious user can cause a user with “administer ncip providers” permission to alter NCIP providers by getting their browser to make a request to a specially-crafted URL.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that only sites that have the XC NCIP Provider module enabled are affected.
