[securi...@drupal.org]

* Advisory ID: DRUPAL-SA-CONTRIB-2010-038
* Project: Privatemsg (third-party module)
* Version: 6.x
* Date: 2010-April-28
* Security risk: Less Critical
* Exploitable from: Remote
* Vulnerability: Access Bypass

-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------

The Privatemsg module allows to send private messages between users.
Additionally, the sub module Privatemsg Email Notification sends e-mail
notification when such a message is sent. The page to configure the template
for these e-mails does not use the correct access permission which allows all
users with the read privatemsg permission to access and alter the settings on
that page.
-------- VERSIONS AFFECTED
---------------------------------------------------

* Privatemsg for Drupal 6.x versions prior to 6.x-1.2

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Privatemsg [1]
module, there is nothing you need to do.
-------- SOLUTION
------------------------------------------------------------

Install the latest version.
* If you use Privatemsg for Drupal 6.x upgrade to Privatemsg 6.x-1.2 [2]

-------- REPORTED BY
