DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in the Spam module for Drupal,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
request forgery attacks.

The application's web interface allows users to perform certain
actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to
verify the requests. This can be exploited to mark comments as spam
by tricking a logged in user into visiting a malicious web site.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 6.x-1.1.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 6.x-1.1
