MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated account with at least low privileges on the target Drupal site (PR:L) and requires a separate victim to interact with the maliciously generated page (UI:R) for the injected script to execute. The specific input field, Webform feature, or configuration that permits the improper neutralization is not described in the available sources, so the exact trigger is unverified. Limiting factors that reduce real-world risk: the attacker cannot act fully unauthenticated, a second user must view the affected content, impact is confined to the victim's browser session (scope unchanged, no availability impact), and only Webform versions below 6.2.12 (6.2.x branch) and below 6.3.1 (6.3.x branch) are affected. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity stored/reflected Cross-Site Scripting issue (CVSS 4.6, CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N) in the Drupal Webform contributed module. The signals are internally consistent and point to a real-but-not-urgent issue rather than an emergency: the vector is network-reachable with low attack complexity, but it requires an authenticated low-privilege account (PR:L) AND victim user interaction (UI:R), and the impact is limited (C:L/I:L, no availability impact, scope unchanged). EPSS is low at 0.21% (10th percentile), there is no CISA KEV listing, and no verified working exploit code is present - only a VulDB advisory reference. The vuln.today priority is 'this_month', which aligns with a patch-on-normal-cadence posture rather than immediate action. No signals conflict: low EPSS, absence of KEV, and the authentication/interaction requirements all reinforce that this is a routine remediation item. The main caveat is that the description does not explain the specific injection point or whether the XSS is stored or reflected, so the realistic blast radius (e.g., whether a low-privilege webform submitter can persist script that executes in an administrator's session) cannot be confirmed from the available data. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with a low-privilege authenticated account on a Drupal site running a vulnerable Webform version injects a crafted script payload through an input handled by the module; when another user - potentially a site administrator reviewing submissions - loads the affected page, the script executes in their browser session. Because user interaction is required (UI:R), the attacker must lure or wait for a victim to view the malicious content. No verified working exploit code is available; only a VulDB advisory reference exists. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 22, 2026
Cross-site scripting in the Drupal Webform contributed module allows an authenticated low-privileged user to inject script that runs when another user interacts with the generated page, affecting Webform releases below 6.2.12 in the 6.2.x branch and below 6.3.1 in the 6.3.x branch. The provided data shows no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS at 0.21% (10th percentile), and no confirmed CISA KEV listing; exploitation requires a victim to interact with the malicious page.
RemediationAI
Patch available per vendor advisory. Upgrade Drupal Webform to the fixed release identified in Drupal SA-contrib-2026-155 at https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2026-155; the provided sources do not specify a separate workaround, so updating is the remediation path. Confirm the exact fixed version for your branch against the advisory because the CVE text lists through 6.2.12 and 6.3.1 while EUVD lists affected ranges below 6.2.12 and 6.3.0 <6.3.1.

Technical ContextAI · show details
CWE-79 covers improper neutralization of user-controllable input during web page generation, leading to cross-site scripting. This CVE is in the Drupal Webform contributed module, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:drupal:webform:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, and the assessed vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N indicates network reachability, low privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope, low confidentiality and integrity impact, and no availability impact. The specific Webform field, rendering path, or configuration that permits the improper neutralization is not described in the available sources, so the exact trigger is unverified.
