Project: Fancy File Delete
Date: 2022-February-09
Security risk: Moderately critical 14∕25 
Vulnerability: Access Bypass

Description

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.

Since the new vulnerability for Apache Log4j detected in December 2021 got massive news coverage around the globe, we started receiving concerned questions from our customers about how this could affect their Drupal websites hosted on AltaGrade platform. And such Log4j-related support requests still continue to be filed in our customer support portal and because they all have the same or similar resolutions, I decided to summarize them here in form of questions and answers.

Security risk: Moderately critical 13∕25
Vulnerability: Cross Site Scripting

Description

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.
