Security Alert (A20-05-05): Multiple Vulnerabilities in Drupal

Description:

Drupal has released security advisories to address cross site scripting and open redirect vulnerabilities in the jQuery library and the “drupal_goto” function of Drupal Core.  A remote attacker may send specially crafted HTTP requests to exploit the vulnerabilities.

Please note that Drupal 8 prior to version 8.7 has reached its End-Of-Life (EOL) in December 2019. No security updates will be provided after that. Users should arrange upgrading the Drupal to supported versions or migrating to other supported technology.

Affected Systems:

• Drupal version 7.x
• Drupal version 8.7.x and 8.8.x

Impact:

A successful attack could lead to cross site scripting on an affected system or redirecting users to malicious websites.

Recommendation:

The product vendor has released patches to address the issues.

• Drupal 7.70

• Drupal 8.7.14
