Project: Webform [1]
Date: 2020-May-06
Security risk: *Critical* 17∕25
AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:All/II:All/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
Vulnerability: Remote Code Execution

Description: 
This module enables you to build forms and surveys in Drupal.

The module doesn't sufficiently filter webform element properties
(attributes) under the scenario of editing a webform. Malicious user could
craft such an attribute (#element_validate, for example) that would invoke
execution of undesired PHP code.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role
with the permission "Edit own webform" (or "Edit any webform").

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

   * If you use the Webform module for Drupal 8, upgrade to Webform 8.x-5.11
     [3]

Also see the Webform [4] project page.
