This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that only private contents where anonymous should not have view access are affected, and only if a node was reassigned to the anonymous user. Solution: Install the latest version: * If you use the Node View Permissions module version 2.0.0. or prior, upgrade to 2.0.1. [3] * If you use the Node View Permissions module version 8.x-1.6. or prior, upgrade to 8.x-1.7.
