As you may know, Drupal 6 has reached End-of-Life (EOL) which means the Drupal Security Team is no longer doing Security Advisories or working on security patches for Drupal 6 core or contrib modules - but the Drupal 6 LTS vendors are and we're one of them!
Today, there is a Less Critical security release for the Public Download Count module to fix an Open Redirect vulnerability.
Public Download Count keeps track of file download counts, even for public files.
The module did not verify that the links provided to the intermediate page were actually present in the Drupal site content.
See the security advisory for Drupal 7 for more information.
Here you can download the Drupal 6 patch or the full release.
If you have a Drupal 6 site using the Public Download Count module, we recommend you update immediately! We have already deployed the patch for all of our Drupal 6 Long-Term Support clients. :-)
If you'd like all your Drupal 6 modules to receive security updates and have the fixes deployed the same day they're released, please check out our D6LTS plans.
Note: if you use the myDropWizard module (totally free!), you'll be alerted to these and any future security updates, and will be able to use drush to install them (even though they won't necessarily have a release on Drupal.org).
