Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires that the attacker hold a high-privilege (administrator-level) role on the target Drupal installation - unauthenticated or low-privilege users cannot trigger this vulnerability based on the PR:H CVSS metric. Beyond authentication, high attack complexity (AC:H) implies additional specific conditions must be met, such as a particular module configuration, modem device attachment state, or precise timing; the exact preconditions are not enumerated in the available description. The vulnerability is limited to Drupal sites that have the Gammu SMS Daemon contributed module installed and enabled. Sites that have never installed this module are not affected.

Impact

The vendor-assigned CVSS 3.1 score of 5.9 (Medium) is anchored by PR:H and AC:H, which together substantially reduce exploitability. Exploitation requires an attacker who has already obtained high-privilege (administrator-level) access to the Drupal site and can meet complex attack conditions - meaning this vulnerability cannot be abused by a standard unauthenticated internet attacker. EPSS data is not present in the input, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified. No KEV listing and no POC code are identified, indicating no confirmed or public exploitation at time of analysis. The C:H/I:H outcome is notable in theory (memory disclosure and corruption), but the high privilege bar means the realistic threat is from a compromised or malicious administrator rather than an external adversary. The absence of a specific patched version in the data leaves patch-state uncertain. Overall, this is a low real-world priority for most organizations - highest concern in environments where Drupal admin roles are shared or delegated to untrusted parties.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who has obtained Drupal administrator credentials - through credential stuffing, phishing, or lateral movement - navigates to a privileged administration page or configuration endpoint served by the Gammu SMS Daemon module and supplies crafted input that triggers an out-of-bounds memory operation. Under favorable conditions (AC:H), the overflow enables the attacker to read sensitive memory contents or overwrite memory to influence program behavior, escalating their foothold. No public POC code is available at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 02, 2026

Buffer overflow (CWE-119) in the Drupal Gammu SMS Daemon contributed module allows a highly privileged, authenticated attacker to achieve high confidentiality and integrity impact against affected Drupal installations. The CVSS vector (PR:H, AC:H) constrains real-world exploitability significantly, requiring both administrative access and complex attack conditions. No active exploitation has been identified; all tracked versions of the module are reported as affected with no specific patched release confirmed in available data.

RemediationAI

Consult the Drupal security advisory at https://www.drupal.org/sa-contrib-2026-100 for the official remediation guidance and any available patched module release. No specific fixed version number is confirmed in the data available for this analysis - apply whatever updated release is designated in that advisory. As a compensating control pending a patch, restrict Drupal administrative role assignment to the minimum necessary trusted accounts, since PR:H means exploitation requires admin-level access. Additionally, consider disabling or uninstalling the Gammu SMS Daemon module on sites where SMS functionality is not actively in use, eliminating the attack surface entirely. Monitor the Drupal security advisories page for follow-on updates.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The Gammu SMS Daemon module is a Drupal contributed module (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:drupal:gammu_sms_daemon:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) that integrates the Drupal CMS with the Gammu open-source SMS/modem management library, enabling Drupal sites to send and receive SMS messages via attached modems or GSM devices. CWE-119 (Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer) indicates a buffer overflow class vulnerability, likely in code that processes modem or SMS input, configuration values, or daemon inter-process communication. Buffer overflows in this class can enable memory reads (confidentiality) and writes (integrity), consistent with the C:H/I:H impact in the vector. The absence of availability impact (A:N) is atypical for buffer overflows but may reflect constrained overflow behavior that does not cause a service crash.

Attack Technique

A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
