Project: JSON API [1] Version: 8.x-1.x-dev Date: 2018-March-21 Security risk: *Moderately critical* 11∕25 AC:Basic/A:User/CI:Some/II:None/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2] Vulnerability: Access Bypass

Description:  This module provides a JSON API standards-compliant API for accessing and manipulating Drupal content and configuration entities.

The module doesn't sufficiently check access when viewing related resources or relationships, thereby causing an access bypass vulnerability.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must be allowed to view the related data, otherwise all they can glean is an entity type UUID and a UUID, which are meaningless by themselves.

Solution:  Install the latest version:

* If you use the JSON API module for Drupal 8.x, upgrade to JSON API 8.x-1.14 [3]
