Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in the Site Documentation module for Drupal, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.

The module displays data from arbitrary tables in the database. This can be exploited to e.g. get the session IDs for logged-in users, or retrieve usernames, password hashes, and e-mail addresses from the database.

Successful exploitation requires valid "access content" permissions (normally given to both guests and users).

The vulnerability is reported in all versions prior to 5.x-1.8 and 6.x-1.1.

Solution:
Update to version 5.x-1.8 or 6.x-1.1.
