DESCRIPTION:
Two security issues have been reported in the Organic groups module
for Drupal, which can be exploited by malicious users to bypass
certain security restrictions.
1) An error exists due to the module not properly maintaining pending
memberships.
Successful exploitation of the security issue requires the ability to
edit your own account.
2) An unspecified error can be exploited to post to otherwise
restricted groups.
The security issues are reported in 7.x-1.x versions prior to
7.x-1.5.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 7.x-1.5.
