Project: Content Moderation Notifications [1]
Date: 2023-September-27
Security risk: *Moderately critical* 11∕25
AC:Complex/A:User/CI:Some/II:None/E:Proof/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Information disclosure

Affected versions: >=3.0.0 <3.6.0
Description: 
This module enables notifications to be sent to all users of a particular
role, or to the content's author when a piece of content is transitioned from
one state to another via core's content_moderation module.

The module doesn't sufficiently check access to content when sending
notifications.
This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have been
assigned to receive notifications for the given content. Additionally, only
data sent in the email is visible, so the attacker cannot access the content
on the site.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Content Moderation Notifications module for Drupal 8.x,
     upgrade to Content Moderation Notifications 8.x-3.6 [3].
