Hi

I just wanted to ask back if the CVEs for SA-CORE-2014-006[1] were
already requested (the advisory mention that they will be requested
and added to the advisory). If so this will ease tracking the two
issues. For reference they are:

Session hijacking (Drupal 6 and 7)

A specially crafted request can give a user access to another user's
session, allowing an attacker to hijack a random session.

This attack is known to be possible on certain Drupal 7 sites which
serve both HTTP and HTTPS content ("mixed-mode"), but it is possible
there are other attack vectors for both Drupal 6 and Drupal 7.

Denial of service (Drupal 7 only)

Drupal 7 includes a password hashing API to ensure that user
supplied passwords are not stored in plain text.

A vulnerability in this API allows an attacker to send specially
crafted requests resulting in CPU and memory exhaustion. This may
lead to the site becoming unavailable or unresponsive (denial of
service).

This vulnerability can be exploited by anonymous users.

They are fixed in Drupal7 7.34 and Drupal6 6.34.
