Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a victim who is already authenticated to a Drupal site running the affected Project Browser module (versions 0.0.0-2.0.2 or 2.1.0-2.1.4) to be lured into interacting with attacker-controlled web content while that session is active; this user-interaction requirement (UI:R) and the high attack complexity (AC:H) are the primary limiting factors. The attacker needs no credentials or privileges of their own (PR:N) because the forged request abuses the victim's existing session and the module's missing or inadequate CSRF token validation. The specific Project Browser operation that lacks anti-CSRF protection is not described in the available sources (Drupal advisory reference and NVD link), so the exact forgeable action cannot be stated with certainty. The complete fix is updating to Project Browser 2.0.3 (for the 0.x-2.0.x branch) or 2.1.5 (for the 2.1.x branch) as published by the vendor.

Impact

This is a genuinely low-to-moderate priority issue, not a high-severity emergency. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.2 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R, meaning that although the flaw is network-reachable and needs no attacker privileges, successful exploitation depends on high attack complexity AND on tricking an authenticated Drupal user into interacting with attacker-controlled content - classic CSRF constraints. The supporting signals reinforce low urgency rather than contradict it: EPSS is 0.10% (1st percentile), the CVE is NOT on CISA KEV, and no public exploit or PoC reference is present in the input. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month', consistent with a patch-on-normal-cycle item rather than act_now/emergency. Impact is bounded (C:L/I:L/A:N) - limited confidentiality and integrity effects, no availability impact. There is no conflict between the signals here: a medium CVSS, negligible EPSS, no KEV and no PoC all point the same direction. The main residual uncertainty is mechanistic - the available sources (a Drupal security advisory reference and an NVD link) do not describe exactly which Project Browser action lacks CSRF protection, so the precise state-changing operation an attacker could forge is not confirmed from the provided data.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious web page or email that, when opened by a Drupal administrator or privileged user who is currently logged into the target site, silently submits a forged state-changing request to the Project Browser module. Because the request rides on the victim's existing authenticated session, the module performs the action as if the user intended it. No public exploit code or PoC reference is present in the input, and the high attack complexity plus required user interaction make opportunistic mass exploitation unlikely.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 22, 2026

Cross-site request forgery in the Drupal Project Browser contributed module (affected ranges 0.0.0 through 2.0.2 and 2.1.0 through 2.1.4) lets an attacker riding an already-authenticated administrator's browser session submit forged requests against the site, with low confidentiality and integrity impact. Exploitation depends on luring a logged-in victim into interacting with attacker-controlled content while the session is live, so the vendor-assessed vector is AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R with a 4.2 base score, and EPSS is only 0.10% (1st percentile). There is no CISA KEV entry and no public exploit identified at time of analysis; vendor-released fixes exist in Project Browser 2.0.3 and 2.1.5, making this a low-to-moderate priority item to fold into the normal monthly patch cycle rather than an emergency.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update Project Browser to 2.0.3 for sites on the 0.x/2.0.x branch or to 2.1.5 for sites on the 2.1.x branch, per Drupal SA-CONTRIB-2026-178 (https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2026-178), and verify the version in the site's module list or composer.lock after updating. The available sources describe updating as the complete fix and do not publish any separate workaround or compensating control, so no alternative mitigation can be recommended from the supplied data; if updating must be deferred, treat the module as a temporary exposure and schedule the update within the current monthly maintenance cycle consistent with the this_month priority, given EPSS of 0.10% and no KEV listing or public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The flaw is CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery) in a Drupal contributed module, Project Browser, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:drupal:project_browser. The root cause class is missing or inadequate anti-CSRF token validation on a state-changing module operation, so a request crafted by a third-party site can be accepted as if it originated from the victim's own authenticated Drupal session; the module's own permission checks are bypassed in effect because the request carries the victim's credentials and privileges. The assessed vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N reflects that the attacker needs no credentials of their own (PR:N) but must land the forged request during an active authenticated session and persuade the victim to interact with attacker-controlled web content (UI:R), which the assessment treats as the dominant limiting factor alongside high attack complexity. The Drupal advisory (SA-CONTRIB-2026-178) and the NVD record are the only sources supplied, and neither describes which specific Project Browser operation lacks the CSRF token, so the exact forgeable action cannot be stated; the trigger is not described in the available sources.

CSRF abuses the victim's existing session so the attacker needs no privileges (PR:N) but requires user interaction (UI:R) and high complexity (AC:H); impact is limited to low C and I.
