Description:

Drupal, it's 8.x-3.x branch is a start from scratch to evaluate the features
of ctools that didn't make it into Drupal Core 8.0.x and port them.

plugin.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that successful exploitation
requires special conditions in place such as custom solutions that allow
injecting the context by means other than the route.

Solution:

   * If you use the Chaos tool suite module for Drupal 8.x, upgrade to Chaos
     tool suite 8.x-3.6 [3]
