CVE-2022-25270Network attack vector

Restricted content disclosure via incomplete entity checks

Published Feb 16, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Incorrect authorization in Drupal core 9.2.0 through 9.2.12 and 9.3.0 through 9.3.5 allows remote authenticated users to view restricted content. The Quick Edit module sometimes returns entity content without correctly enforcing that entity's access decision; Drupal has not disclosed the triggering circumstances. Exploitation requires the access in-place editing permission and enabled Quick Edit module; it discloses content only, without reported modification or interruption.
