Synopsis

Drupal 8.5.x < 8.5.0-rc1 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the detected Drupal application is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- A flaw exists with the Comment Reply Form. An authenticated remote attacker could add or view comments that they do not have access to. (CVE-2017-6926)

- A flaw exists with the Drupal.checkPlain() function due to improper handling of HTML injection. A remote attacker, with a specially crafted request, could potentially execute arbitrary script code within the trust relationship between the browser and server. (CVE-2017-6927)

- A flaw exists with node access controls with a multilingual site due to defaulting to the untranslated version as a fallback. A remote attacker could potentially bypass access restrictions. (CVE-2017-6930)

- A flaw exists with the Settings Tray module. A remote attacker could update data the do not have permission for. (CVE-2017-6931)

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
