Vulnerability Assessment
| Exploitation Conditions | The target must be a Drupal installation with the contributed 'API Key manager' module installed and enabled; the vulnerability affects all versions ('*.*') per the sparse NVD data, so no specific version boundary is confirmed. Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), no authentication or user interaction is required and exploitation is remote against reachable instances. The practical limiting factor is deployment footprint rather than configuration: this is a niche contributed module, not Drupal core, so exposure is confined to the subset of Drupal sites that have specifically installed it. The exact feature, endpoint, or configuration that triggers the disclosure is not described in the available data and should be confirmed against Drupal SA-contrib-2025-103. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity information disclosure flaw in the Drupal contributed 'API Key manager' module, rated CVSS 5.3 with a vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) indicating network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated exploitation affecting only confidentiality at a LOW level. The signals are internally consistent but point to a low real-world priority rather than an emergency: EPSS is 0.25% (15th percentile), indicating low predicted exploitation probability; the CVE is NOT in CISA KEV; and no public POC is referenced. No SSVC decision data or CWE was supplied. The 'LOW' confidentiality impact combined with an information-disclosure classification suggests partial exposure of data (plausibly API keys or configuration, given the module's name) rather than full compromise. The description is extremely sparse ('API Key manager: *.*') and provides no technical detail, CWE, or affected version boundary, so the exact nature and scope of the disclosure cannot be confirmed from the data. Net assessment: a legitimately network-reachable unauthenticated issue, but low EPSS, no KEV, and no POC make this a patch-on-normal-cycle item, not a drop-everything priority. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote, unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted request to a Drupal site running the API Key manager module and receives sensitive information the module should not expose (consistent with the 'Information Disclosure' tag and LOW confidentiality impact). No public exploit code is referenced, and the low attack complexity means no special timing or conditions are needed, though the disclosed data is limited in scope per the CVSS C:L rating. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 08, 2026
Unauthenticated remote attackers can disclose sensitive information from Drupal sites that use the contributed API Key Manager module, as the vulnerability is network-reachable, low-complexity, and requires no privileges or user interaction (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N). The flaw affects all versions of the module (per CPE) and results in a low confidentiality impact, with an EPSS score of 0.25% indicating a low likelihood of exploitation. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Apply the security patch or update provided in the Drupal security advisory SA-contrib-2025-103 (https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2025-103). The advisory specifies the fixed version; if a patched release is available, update the API Key Manager module to that version. Patch available per vendor advisory; exact fixed version not specified in the provided data. If immediate patching is not possible, consider temporarily disabling the API Key Manager module if it is not essential to site operations, as this removes the attack surface-but note that disabling may break functionality that relies on the module. Since the vulnerability is unauthenticated, standard Drupal permission restrictions may not mitigate it; however, you can limit exposure by restricting network access to the Drupal site or specific endpoints using a web application firewall (WAF) or reverse proxy rules, though this may impact legitimate users. Monitor logs for unusual requests to the module's endpoints. Given the low EPSS score (0.25%) and no public exploit identified, the immediate risk is low, but applying the vendor fix remains the primary recommendation.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability resides in the Drupal contributed module 'API Key Manager' (project namespace api_key_manager_project), which is designed to manage and store API keys within a Drupal site. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:api_key_manager_project:api_key_manager:*:*:*:*:*:drupal:*:*:* confirms that all versions of this module for the Drupal platform are affected, and no CWE has been assigned, leaving the root cause class as an information disclosure issue-likely improper access control or missing permission checks that allow unauthenticated users to view sensitive data such as API keys. The CVSS vector indicates the attack is remote (AV:N), low complexity (AC:L), requires no authentication (PR:N), and no user interaction (UI:N), affecting only confidentiality at a low level (C:L). Drupal contributed modules are not part of Drupal core and must be installed separately; thus, exposure is limited to sites that have specifically enabled this module. The exact endpoint or feature that triggers the disclosure is not detailed in the available data and should be confirmed against Drupal SA-contrib-2025-103.
