I don't know if this is relevant, but the latest version of BOA, which we are not running, see ticket:854, didn't have a Pressflow update, the latest version of Pressflow from BOA is Pressflow 6.34 and that came out with BOA-2.3.7 in November 2014.

Does the site use the OpenID module? That is the only Drupal 6 issue in SA-CORE-2015-002.

Impersonation (OpenID module - Drupal 6 and 7 - Critical)

A vulnerability was found in the OpenID module that allows a malicious user to log in as other users on the site, including administrators, and hijack their accounts.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the victim must have an account with an associated OpenID identity from a particular set of OpenID providers (including, but not limited to, Verisign, LiveJournal, or StackExchange).

I have also added myself and Ade as CCs for this ticket, I hopw that is OK.

Thanks Chris,

We're not using the OpenID so we can skip the core update. I would normally just apply any core update.

I'll update the following ..

  • Vulnerability: Open Redirect

Next time we have a core update that needs to be applied: I'll investigate further how to proceed.

I noticed that VBO appeared to still need a security update; but in fact it had already been applied on the the stage server.

I doubled checked that this update was also applied on the live site:

Replying to paul:

Are we no longer getting security updates for drupal?

https://github.com/omega8cc/boa/search?q=pressflow
http://files.aegir.cc/core/pressflow-6.38.1.tar.gz

As I recall we stopped doing BOA updates a while ago due to the fact that we couldn't agree on upgrading to a supported version of PHP (we tried to clone PuffinServer to do a test run but that failed, we don't have a dev server to test on as the dev server was dropped with the switch to BOA because, as I remember, it was deemed that the cost saving was more important than being able to test updates), so we are stuck with BOA 2.4.2, see wiki:PuffinServer#Upgradetickets.

I see that the latest Pressflow, 6.37.120 has merged in Drupal core 6.37 which has fixes for SA-CORE-2015-003, BOA has Pressflow 6.37.1, it appear to me that BOA hasn't yet added Pressflow 6.37.120?

I would expect that support for this will be added and a new BOA release will happen very soon.

There are security issues that could impact us in SA-CORE-2015-003:

Cross-site Scripting - Autocomplete system - Drupal 6 and 7

A cross-site scripting vulnerability was found in the autocomplete functionality of forms. The requested URL is not sufficiently sanitized.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the malicious user must be allowed to upload files.

Cross-site Request Forgery - Form API - Drupal 6 and 7

A vulnerability was discovered in Drupal's form API that could allow file upload value callbacks to run with untrusted input, due to form token validation not being performed early enough. This vulnerability could allow a malicious user to upload files to the site under another user's account.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the uploaded files would be temporary, and Drupal normally deletes temporary files automatically after 6 hours.

Users without the "access content" permission can see the titles of nodes that they do not have access to, if the nodes are added to a menu on the site that the users have access to.

In terms of what we can do I would suggest two options:

  1. Build a new BOA server and use that for testing the existing site with a supported version of PHP following the BOA migration documentation. If this works OK make this new server the live server and switch off PuffinServer (the IP address can be moved to the new server saving a DNS update and minimising downtime for the site).
  2. Abandon BOA and build a new server without it.

Either of the above two options would have a significant time and therefore cost implication so some alternative options might have to be though of?

This issue probably deserves a new ticket and/or a email to the ttech list or even a conference call?

Hi all

Ade will be back from holiday soon. I'm pretty sure he won't want to
spend much on any BOA re-configuration, so my guess is that we'll be
looking to move the site to a more usual /dev /stage /live kind of
setup without BOA. But that's a decision for Ade.

In the short term, looking to mitigate the risks;

>  There are security issues that could impact us in [https://www.drupal.org

Disabling any user file uploads would mitigate this.

>  > == Cross-site Request Forgery - Form API - Drupal 6 and 7 ==

Again disabling any user file uploads would mitigate this.

I can't think of a situation on the current configuration which would
be a problem for us.

So today I'll have a look through all the forms and disable and user
uploads which should give us some breathing space..

Thanks

Sam

Hello,

The choice seems to be do nothing or do something, both incur a significant cost, one financial the other relating to the security of users who use the website. We have responsibility to do something, so we may as well implement whatever solution will be the easiest to use going forward.

I think having a new server would be my preference. We can then have things setup how we want them (using git and branches, ..), and do things more quickly.

Best, Paul

Hi all

So I disabled the three webforms that allowed file upload (all old and

I also unchecked topmost 'upload' box on this page & saved
https://www.transitionnetwork.org/admin/settings/imce/profile/edit/2

I think that should cover it, unless anyone else can think of areas
where users can upload files?

The only thing I think this breaks is users being able to add images to:

* Projects - we hardly get any of these anyway, I've made a note on
the form for users to email these to us if they want to include a
photo.

*Initiative profile - Again very low volume, I've made a note on the
form for users to email these to us if they want to include a photo.

I'll email staff to let them know just in case there are any
unexpected consequences, I very much doubt anyone will notice though..

Thanks

Sounds like you got this one covered. Thanks Sam!

comment:74 Changed 15 months ago by sam

If we define 'covered' as deliberately breaking a load of stuff then yes :)

I figure we should work out a proper solution for this fairly soon,
but obviously Ade needs to be involved in that. At least this way we
can think about what to do without sitting on an insecure site..

  • Add Hours to Ticket changed from 0.0 to 0.75
  • Total Hours changed from 21.4 to 22.15

No additional security updates need to be applied.

Here is a first draft of how we could try to do the core updates manually:

Download and extract the latest Drupal tar ball.

Remove all .txt files and the sites folder.

From the stage/production directory (under /data/disk/tn/static) remove all .php files, and the following directories: includes/ modules/, misc/ , profiles/, themes/. However, keep the following modules and links in the modules directory: simpletest, path_alias_cache, o_contrib@, cookie_cache_bypass

Copy over the remaining files and folders from the drupal tarball to the stage/production directory.

Best, Paul

  • Add Hours to Ticket changed from 0.0 to 0.5

I have manually updated ctools and views_bulk_operations on the live site (fairly straightforward). I thought these updates were already done. Apologies, if this is down to an error on my part.

Tomorrow, I'll try to update drupal core on my stage site following the instructions I documented earlier. If the the update looks successful we can then test the site to see if there are any problems.

However, I took the opportunity to manually update core and update the database. After updating core I also deleted the current files/ .htaccess file (see screenshot) and regenerated this from the files system page.

  • Add Hours to Ticket changed from 0.0 to 0.1

Replying to paul:

I also deleted the current files/ .htaccess file (see screenshot) and regenerated this from the files system page.

Note that since we are using Nginx and not Apache that all .htaccess files will be ignored and have no effect.

If there are some new rules from a .htaccess file that we need to add to the Ngnix config then we will have to do that manually -- where is the .htaccess file you recreated? I could check it against the Ngnix config (if I can actually find it in the BOA created mess of config files...).

comment:90 Changed 13 months ago by chris

  • Add Hours to Ticket changed from 0.0 to 0.25
  • Total Hours changed from 26.5 to 26.75

So looking for the .htaccess file, there are 96 on the server...

updatedb
locate .htaccess

It seems like /data/disk/tn/static/sites/transitionnetwork.org-PROD/files/.htaccess is the one? It contains:

# Turn off all options we don't need.
Options None
Options +FollowSymLinks

# Set the catch-all handler to prevent scripts from being executed.
SetHandler Drupal_Security_Do_Not_Remove_See_SA_2006_006
<Files *>
  # Override the handler again if we're run later in the evaluation list.
  SetHandler Drupal_Security_Do_Not_Remove_See_SA_2013_003
</Files>

# If we know how to do it safely, disable the PHP engine entirely.
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
  php_flag engine off
</IfModule>
# PHP 4, Apache 1.
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
  php_flag engine off
</IfModule>
# PHP 4, Apache 2.
<IfModule sapi_apache2.c>
  php_flag engine off
</IfModule>

So all it is doing is disabling PHP for the uploads directory. I would guess that this is already covered, so to test it I created /data/disk/tn/static/sites/transitionnetwork.org-PROD/files/info.php containing:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

And it is available here:

And it is served with the default Nginx Mime type, Content-Type: application/octet-stream and not processed, so we are covered.

Thanks Chris. I forgot we are using Nginx.

The .htaccess is located here:

/data/disk/tn/static/transition-network-d6-35-p001b-booker/sites/www.transitionnetwork.org/files

It has the same content as the file you referenced above.

This the first module to become unsupported for Drupal 6. If we know that we are not using any particular unsupported module on the website we should disable the module, just in case there are unresolved security issues with the module.

Would you like me to provide extended support for Drupal 6 when it becomes unsupported by the community?

If so, we will need to read up on the security team process (i.e. go through the handbook pages) and contact the security team for further guidance.

I had previously missed the flies directory.

Let me know if I should take the time to set the website up on my local server to confirm that we can rebuild the website from the above backup.

I have taken a backup of the database with the Backup & Migrate module. I'll investigate how to take a manual backup of the database later this afternoon.

Paul I'm not sure the work you are doing on backups is necessary, we have 60 days worth of MySQL and files backed up that you can access, see wiki:PuffinServer#Backups and in addition we have 60 days worth of snapshots of the whole servers (which only Webarchitects can access).

Sorry, I'll have a look at these. Are we testing these backups somewhere?

No, I haven't done any testing of the backups.

The database did not need updating unlike the corresponding security release for Drupal 7.

Note:

If anyone should need access to the database update script from their user account, you can uncomment the following line:

Chris,

Would you place a recent copy of the database in my home directory?

Attempts to install a recent database backup taken by the Backup & Migrate module:

Dirac:transitionnetwork-org paul$ file TransitionNetwork-paulbooker-2016-06-02T11-52-33.sql.gz 
TransitionNetwork-paulbooker-2016-06-02T11-52-33.sql.gz: ASCII English text, with very long lines

Dirac:transitionnetwork-org paul$ gunzip TransitionNetwork-paulbooker-2016-06-02T11-52-33.sql.gz 
gunzip: TransitionNetwork-paulbooker-2016-06-02T11-52-33.sql.gz: not in gzip format

Archive:  TransitionNetwork-paulbooker-2016-06-02T11-52-33.sql.gz
  End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not
  a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.  In the
  latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
  the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip:  cannot find zipfile directory in one of TransitionNetwork-paulbooker-2016-06-02T11-52-33.sql.gz or
        TransitionNetwork-paulbooker-2016-06-02T11-52-33.sql.gz.zip, and cannot find TransitionNetwork-paulbooker-2016-06-02T11-52-33.sql.gz.ZIP, period.

Paul, as noted here, wiki:PuffinServer#Backups, backupninja "dumps all the mysql databases into /var/backups/mysql" -- you have sudo so you should be good to grab the latest from there?
