NASL family CGI abuses NASL id DRUPAL_8_2_8.NASL description According to its self-reported version, the instance of Drupal running on the remote web server is 8.x prior to 8.2.8 or 8.3.x prior to 8.3.1. It is, therefore, affected by an access bypass vulnerability due to an unspecified flaw when the RESTful Web Services (rest) module is enabled and the site allows PATCH requests. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to bypass critical access restrictions.

| description | This is a critical access bypass vulnerability. A site is only affected by this if all of the following conditions are met: * The site has the RESTful Web Services (`rest`) module enabled. * The site allows `PATCH` requests. * An attacker can get or register a user account on the site. While we don't normally provide security releases for [unsupported minor releases](https://www.drupal.org/core/release-cycle-overview), given the potential severity of this issue, we have also provided an 8.2.x release to ensure that sites that have not had a chance to update to 8.3.0 can update safely. |
