MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires a valid authenticated account with at least low privileges (PR:L) on a Drupal site running the AI (Artificial Intelligence) module in an affected range (0.0.0 through 1.3.13-exclusive, or 1.4.0 through 1.4.8-exclusive). The flaw is a missing authorization check that permits forceful browsing - directly accessing a resource or endpoint that should be access-controlled. Limiting factors: an attacker cannot exploit this anonymously (authentication is required), impact is capped at partial confidentiality and integrity with no availability effect, and the CVSS vector indicates some user interaction (UI:R) is involved, though the sources do not describe what that interaction is. The specific endpoint, feature, or configuration that is left unprotected is not detailed in the available description. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity Missing Authorization flaw (CWE-862) in the Drupal AI contrib module, scored CVSS 4.6. The provided CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N) indicates a network-reachable issue that requires an authenticated low-privileged account (PR:L) and some user interaction (UI:R), with only low confidentiality and integrity impact and no availability impact. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month' rather than act_now/emergency, which is consistent with the limited impact and the authentication prerequisite. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no proof-of-concept or exploit reference were supplied, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active exploitation. One internal inconsistency to verify: the module description characterizes the flaw as 'Forceful Browsing' (direct unauthorized access to resources), which typically needs no user interaction, yet the supplied CVSS vector sets UI:R - the role of user interaction is not explained in the available sources and should be confirmed with the Drupal advisory. Overall this is a real but lower-tier priority: it requires a valid account, yields only partial read/write exposure of resources, and shows none of the amplifying signals (KEV, high EPSS, automatable exploitation) that would make it urgent. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who already holds a low-privileged authenticated account on a Drupal site running a vulnerable AI module version navigates directly to a resource or endpoint that lacks a proper authorization check, gaining access to data or actions beyond their assigned permissions. Because impact is limited to low confidentiality and integrity (C:L/I:L), the result is partial unauthorized disclosure or modification rather than full site compromise. No public exploit code was identified in the provided data. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 22, 2026
The Drupal AI (Artificial Intelligence) contrib module performs insufficient authorization checks on at least one of its endpoints, allowing forceful browsing - an authenticated user can reach a resource or route directly by URL that the module never gates behind an access check. Versions 0.0.0 through 1.3.13 and 1.4.0 through 1.4.8 are affected; exploitation requires a valid account with at least low privileges (PR:L) and cannot be performed anonymously, with impact limited to partial confidentiality and integrity and no availability effect (CVSS 4.6). There is no CISA KEV listing and no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the vendor has published a security advisory with a fix.
RemediationAI
Install the vendor-fixed release of the AI (Artificial Intelligence) module: the patch status is 'available from vendor', and Drupal's security advisory SA-CONTRIB-2026-120 (https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2026-120) lists the exact fixed releases for the 1.3.x and 1.4.x branches - upgrade past 1.3.13 and past 1.4.8 respectively to the versions named in that advisory. Because the specific vulnerable route is not identified in the available data, there is no documented targeted workaround; the advisory is the definitive source and updating is the complete fix. As a compensating control while patching, note that exploitation requires an authenticated low-privileged account, so auditing and reducing the set of roles/accounts that can log into sites running the AI module lowers exposure - the trade-off is that this narrows legitimate access for content editors and site builders who use the module. No public exploit code has been observed, so emergency out-of-band change windows are not indicated, but the update should be scheduled within the current monthly maintenance cycle.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected component is the AI (Artificial Intelligence) contributed module for Drupal (CPE cpe:2.3:a:drupal:ai_(artificial_intelligence)), not Drupal core. The root cause is CWE-862, Missing Authorization: in Drupal's routing/access system each route must declare its access requirements (for example a permission, role, or custom access callback), and when that declaration is absent or too permissive the route remains reachable to any authenticated user even though the intended UI would never expose it. This is the classic 'forceful browsing' pattern - the attacker skips the intended navigation path and requests the endpoint directly. The network vector and low attack complexity mean no special conditions are needed beyond an account; the vendor-supplied vector additionally carries a user-interaction component (UI:R) while the independent assessment scores UI:N, so the exact role of user interaction in triggering the flaw is not established. The specific endpoint, feature, or configuration left unprotected is not described in the available sources, so the trigger beyond 'direct request to an insufficiently protected route' cannot be characterised further. The EUVD record (EUVD-2026-107879) mirrors the vendor ranges.

AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N
Missing authorization reachable over the network by any low-privileged account gives PR:L and AC:L; forceful browsing needs no user interaction so UI:N (diverging from the input's UI:R); partial read/write yields C:L/I:L/A:N.
