DescriptionCVE.org

Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in Drupal Edit in-place field allows Forceful Browsing. This issue affects Edit in-place field versions: from 0.0.0 to 2.1.1.

AnalysisAI

Incorrect authorization in the Drupal Edit in-place field contrib module (versions 0.0.0 through pre-2.1.1) enables authenticated users to perform forceful browsing against field-edit endpoints they lack permission to access, resulting in unauthorized read and write access to protected Drupal field data. The CVSS base score of 8.1 reflects high confidentiality and integrity impact, though real-world risk is tempered by the authentication prerequisite (PR:L) and an extremely low EPSS score of 0.13% (3rd percentile). …
