Exploitation Conditions

No special conditions beyond reachability - per CVSS PR:N/UI:N this is remote unauthenticated exploitation of DKAN (Drupal open-data module) versions 0.0.0 through <4.0.4 and 4.1.0 through <4.1.5, requiring only the ability to send requests to the application. The attacker directly accesses resources whose authorization check is missing (forceful browsing); the specific protected feature or endpoint affected is not described in the available sources. LIMITING FACTORS: impact is confined to limited information disclosure (C:L, no integrity or availability impact), the instance must be network-reachable to the attacker, and the deployment must run an unpatched affected version - updating to 4.0.4 or 4.1.5 remediates it.

Impact

Signals are consistent and point to a genuine but low-urgency issue rather than a top-priority emergency. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) describes trivial remote, unauthenticated, no-interaction access, which inflates the base score, but impact is confined to C:L with I:N and A:N - i.e. limited unauthorized disclosure only, no data modification or outage. The EPSS score is very low (0.14%, 4th percentile), the CVE is NOT on CISA KEV, and no exploit code is referenced, so there is no evidence of active or imminent mass exploitation. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month', aligning with a moderate, scheduled-remediation posture rather than act_now/emergency. Net: a real missing-authorization (forceful browsing) flaw that is easy to trigger but low in consequence; patch within the normal monthly cycle, prioritizing internet-exposed DKAN portals. Note that the specific resources/endpoints left unprotected are not enumerated in the available sources, so the true confidentiality impact of a given deployment should be verified against the Drupal advisory.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote, unauthenticated attacker directly requests DKAN URLs or API endpoints that are missing authorization checks (forceful browsing), retrieving records or resources that should have been access-restricted. Because the flaw requires no authentication, no user interaction, and low complexity, enumeration is straightforward, but disclosure is limited (CVSS C:L) and no modification or denial of service is possible. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 30, 2026

Missing authorization in the Drupal DKAN open-data module allows remote unauthenticated attackers to browse directly to resources that lack an access check, resulting in limited information disclosure. DKAN releases before 4.0.4 and 4.1.x releases before 4.1.5 are affected, with a medium CVSS score of 5.3 and only confidentiality impact. The vendor has released fixes in 4.0.4 and 4.1.5; EPSS is 0.14% (4th percentile) and no public exploit code was identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Update DKAN to 4.0.4 or 4.1.5, the vendor-released fixed versions; the Drupal security advisory at https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2026-208 provides the official guidance. Patch availability is confirmed from the vendor. No specific workaround or compensating control is described in the supplied sources, so sites that cannot immediately update should treat the vendor update as the complete remediation and verify the deployed DKAN version after upgrading.

Technical ContextAI · show details

DKAN is a Drupal-based open-data platform distributed as a Drupal module; the CPE cpe:2.3:a:drupal:dkan identifies the affected component. The root cause is CWE-862 (Missing Authorization): an authorization check is absent on a resource or route, so a request can reach content that should be protected - the pattern Drupal describes as forceful browsing. The specific protected feature or endpoint is not described in the available sources, so the exact request path and data exposed are unverified. The CVSS:3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N indicates network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation with no privileges or user interaction required, scope unchanged, and limited confidentiality impact only; integrity and availability are not affected.
