Description

A malicious user may entice users to visit a specially crafted URL that may 
result in the redirection of Drupal form submission to a third-party site. A 
user visiting the user registration page via such a url, for example, will 
submit all data, such as his/her e-mail address, but also possible private 
profile data, to a third-party site.
