This module allows site administrators to grant specific roles the authority to assign selected roles to users, without them needing the administer permissions permission.
The module contains an access bypass vulnerability when used in combination with the Views Bulk Operations module. An authenticated user is able to assign the administrator role to his own user.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have access to an overview of users with the views bulk operations module enabled. E.g. The admin_views module provides such a view.
Drupal uses the third-party Guzzle library for handling HTTP requests and responses to external services. Guzzle has released a security update which may affect some Drupal sites.
Drupal 6 LTS vendor-provided support will end on October 22, 2022.
On February 24th, 2016, Drupal 6 was marked end-of-life (EOL). The Drupal 6 Long-Term-Support (LTS) program added more than 6 years of additional coverage for program participants and the community.
The GOV.UK Theme (govuk_theme) is a Drupal theme for the GOV.UK Design System.
The theme doesn't sanitize user input in certain cases, which leads to Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. An attacker that can create or edit certain entities or configuration may be able to exploit one or more Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities to target visitors of the site, including site admins with privileged access.
The vulnerability is mitigated by the facts, that:
This module provides an entity relationship hierarchy tree widget for an entity reference field.
The module doesn't sufficiently filter on output, leading to a Cross Site Scripting vulnerability.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role with the permission to modify an entity that is the reference to a field.
The Quick Edit module does not properly check entity access in some circumstances. This could result in users with the "access in-place editing" permission viewing some content they are are not authorized to access.
The Quick Edit module does not properly check entity access in some circumstances. This could result in users with the "access in-place editing" permission viewing some content they are are not authorized to access.
Sites are only affected if the QuickEdit module (which comes with the Standard profile) is installed.
Drupal core's form API has a vulnerability where certain contributed or custom modules' forms may be vulnerable to improper input validation. This could allow an attacker to inject disallowed values or overwrite data. Affected forms are uncommon, but in certain cases an attacker could alter critical or sensitive data.
This module enables you to manage and delete files.
The module doesn't sufficiently protect unmanaged files from view under the scenario unauthenticated user knows path to visit the view and can attempt to delete files which results in duplicate files being created.
To mitigate this issue without deploying code, review all views that are based on Fancy File Delete and ensure they have an access control set to use the permission "administer unmanaged files entities".
This module enables users to create 'private' vocabularies.
The module doesn't sufficiently check user access permissions when attempting to view, edit, or add terms to vocabularies, including vocabularies not managed by the module.
Partial mitigation is available by requiring users have been granted at least "Administer own taxonomy", "Edit own terms in vocabulary_name" or "Delete own terms in vocabulary_name" permissions, however this does not mitigate all known issues.
Update 2022-05-31. A past and new maintainers have created a fix and new releases which include fixes for the security issue that caused the module to be unsupported.
Update 2022-05-04: Existing maintainers have updated the project to clarify that the module did not contain a security issue that caused the module to be unsupported.
This module provides a stream wrapper for files located in the vendor directory. Even when the vendor directory is moved outside the webroot, it allows providing publically accessible URLs to these files.
The module exposes all files that are in the vendor directory, without a site owner's knowledge or intention. This could be undesirable behavior, especially since this module is required as a dependency by other modules.
Edited October 24, 2023 after the project has been re-supported by new maintainers and this advisory metadata affects composer.
This module provides a very simple, mobile-friendly navigation toolbar.
The module doesn't sufficiently check for user-provided input.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have the ability to post content using a text format (like the default "Filtered HTML" format) that won't filter out the exploit code.
Updated 2022-02-02: New maintainers have volunteered for the project and created new releases which includes fixes for the security issues that caused the module to be unsupported.
Update 2022-03-01. New maintainers have volunteered for the project and created a new release which includes fixes for the 3 security issues that caused the module to be unsupported.
jQuery UI is a third-party library used by Drupal. This library was previously thought to be end-of-life.
Late in 2021, jQuery UI announced that they would be continuing development, and released a jQuery UI 1.13.0 version. In addition to the issue covered by SA-CORE-2022-001, further security vulnerabilities disclosed in jQuery UI 1.13.0 may affect Drupal 7 only:

Late in 2021, jQuery UI announced that they would be continuing development, and released a jQuery UI 1.13.0 version. As part of this 1.13.0 update, they disclosed the following security issue that may affect Drupal 9 and 7:
jQuery UI is a third-party library used by Drupal. The jQuery UI Datepicker module provides the jQuery UI Datepicker library, which is not included in Drupal 9 core.

This module enables you to integrate various What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get (WYSIWYG) rich text editors into Drupal fields with text formats allowing markup for easier editing.
The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize user input before attaching a WYSIWYG editor to an input field such as a textarea. If the editor used has an XSS vulnerability this would allow for example a commenter to put specially crafted markup which could trigger the vulnerability when viewed in the editor by an administrator.
This module enables you to implement OAuth 2.0 authentication for Drupal.
The module doesn't sufficiently verify client secret keys for "confidential" OAuth 2.0 clients when using certain grant types. The token refresh and client credentials grants are not affected.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the vast majority of OAuth 2.0 clients in the wild are public, not confidential. Furthermore, all affected grant types still require users to authenticate to Drupal during the OAuth flow.
This module enables you to build forms and surveys in Drupal.
The module doesn't sufficiently check access for administrative features for webforms attached to nodes using the Webform Node module. This may reveal submitted data or allow an attacker to modify submitted data. Additionally, for sites with webforms that send emails and store submissions this vulnerability would allow an attacker to use the site as an email relay (i.e. sending arbitrary emails).
As of November 17, 2021, the Drupal core version 8 series has reached end-of-life. This means that all releases of Drupal 8 core (with 8.y.x version numbers) and Drupal contributed project releases that are compatible with only Drupal 8 will be marked unsupported as they no longer have security team support.
Drupal 8.0.0 was first released on November 9, 2015. The last version was released on November 17, 2021.
This module enables users to authenticate through their Microsoft Azure AD account.
The module does not sufficiently check authorization before updating user profile information in certain non-default configurations. This could lead a user being able to hijack another existing account.
