Exploitation Conditions

The CVSS vector PR:N indicates no authentication is required to attempt exploitation. However, AC:H confirms that specific preconditions must be met: the attacker must have prior knowledge of, or be able to enumerate, the internal URL structure of AI agent resources exposed by the module. The vulnerability is contingent on the Drupal AI Agents contributed module being installed, enabled, and running one of the affected version branches (0.0.0-1.1.4, 1.2.0-1.2.5, or 1.3.0-1.3.1). Exploitation is limited by the requirement for resource path knowledge (limiting mass automated scanning), the partial impact scope (no full system access), and the absence of any automatable exploitation path per SSVC. Sites that have not installed this contributed module are entirely unaffected.

Impact

Across all available signals, real-world risk is low-to-moderate. The CVSS base score of 4.8 (Medium) is consistent with the vector's AC:H constraint, which limits automated, opportunistic exploitation. EPSS at 0.14% (4th percentile) reflects near-zero observed exploitation probability in threat intelligence feeds. CISA SSVC corroborates this: Exploitation=none, Automatable=no, Technical Impact=partial - all pointing away from urgent triage. There is no KEV listing and no public exploit code identified. The C:L/I:L impact scope means a successful attack results in partial unauthorized data access or modification within the AI Agents module, not full system compromise. The primary concern is Drupal sites that have deployed this contributed module across multiple affected branches, where attackers with knowledge of specific agent resource paths could access or manipulate restricted AI agent data without authorization. The AC:H barrier materially reduces the likelihood of untargeted exploitation. No conflicting signals were identified.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who identifies a Drupal site running the AI Agents module enumerates or guesses resource URLs associated with AI agent endpoints and sends direct HTTP GET or POST requests to those paths without supplying authorization credentials or tokens. Due to the authorization logic flaw, the module processes the request and returns or modifies restricted AI agent data. No public exploit code exists at time of analysis, and the AC:H constraint means successful exploitation likely requires site-specific path reconnaissance rather than generic scanning.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 13, 2026

Incorrect Authorization (CWE-863) in the Drupal AI Agents contributed module enables Forceful Browsing, allowing network-reachable attackers to access restricted AI agent resources without proper permission checks. Three distinct release branches are affected: 0.0.0-1.1.4, 1.2.0-1.2.5, and 1.3.0-1.3.1. CISA SSVC classifies exploitation as none with partial technical impact, EPSS sits at the 4th percentile, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis - signals that collectively indicate limited immediate real-world risk despite the network-accessible attack vector.

RemediationAI

A patch is available per the vendor advisory at https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2026-057 - administrators should consult that advisory for the exact patched version in their active branch (1.1.x, 1.2.x, or 1.3.x) and upgrade immediately. Exact fixed version numbers are not independently confirmed from the available input data; reference the Drupal security advisory directly for the authoritative fix version per branch. As a compensating control prior to patching, sites can restrict access to AI agent endpoints at the web server or reverse proxy layer by blocking or requiring authentication for paths associated with the AI Agents module's resource routes, though this may degrade agent functionality. Disabling the AI Agents module entirely eliminates the attack surface if the feature is non-critical. Standard Drupal hardening - ensuring the contributed module directory is not publicly writable and that Drupal's permission system is audited - remains relevant context.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected component is the Drupal AI Agents contributed module (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:drupal:ai_agents), which extends the Drupal CMS platform with AI agent orchestration capabilities. CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization) denotes a failure to verify whether a requesting party holds the necessary permissions before granting access to a resource or operation - distinct from authentication failures (CWE-287), this is an authorization logic defect that occurs after identity resolution. Forceful Browsing exploits this by allowing direct HTTP requests to resource URLs that should be gated behind authorization checks; if those checks are absent or bypassable, the module exposes agent-related resources to callers who should be denied. The AC:H metric in the CVSS vector indicates specific preconditions - such as knowledge of internal resource path structures or identifiers - must be satisfied, suggesting the module's URL scheme or resource naming is a prerequisite for exploitation.
