Upgrade drupal/core
to version 8.5.15, 8.6.16 or higher.
Overview
drupal/core is an an open source content management platform powering millions of websites and applications.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Control Bypass. The generateCookieHash
function used to create a user's remember me cookie does not contain a delimiter during token generation. As such, an attacker could modify the remember me cookie and authenticate as a different user. This attack is only possible if the remember me functionality is enabled and the two users share a password hash or if the password hashes (e.g. UserInterface::getPassword()
) are null for all users (which is valid if passwords are checked by an external system, e.g. an SSO).
