Arrow  Advisory Content :  

------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
Drupal security advisory
DRUPAL-SA-2007-002
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
Project: Drupal core.
Date: 2007-Jan-05.
Security risk: Less critical.
Exploitable from: Remote.
Vulnerability: Denial of service.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

Description
-----------
The way page caching was implemented allows a denial of service attack.
An attacker has to have the ability to post content on the site. He or she

would then be able to poison the page cache, so that it returns cached 404

page not found errors for existing pages.

If the page cache is not enabled, your site is not vulnerable. The
vulnerability only affects sites running on top of MySQL.

- Drupal 4.6.x versions before Drupal 4.6.11
